Kayakoy
Kayaköy is the Turkish name given to Levissi, a village 8 km south of Fethiye in southwestern Turkey where Anatolian Greeks lived until approximately 1923. The ghost town, now preserved as a museum village, consists of hundreds of rundown but still mostly intact Greek-style houses and churches which cover a small mountainside and serve as a stopping place for tourists visiting Fethiye and nearby Ölüdeniz.
Williamsburg, Brooklyn
Once a predominant stomping ground of Hasidic Jews and veritable urban industrial wasteland, the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn has reinvented itself (due in part to its geographic proximity to the waterfront and Manhattan) as a thriving community of artists and artist wannabes as well as the brunt of many a snarky blog post.
1880's Town
Walk down Main Street of this 1880 town and explore more than 30 buildings authentically furnished with thousands of relics. Enjoy the rolling terrain of a sprawling homestead and envision life on the prairie.
The birthplace of mariachi music
Considered the birthplace of mariachi music, Cocula is about an hour southwest of Guadalajara in the state of Jalisco. Go the day before Mexican Independance Day, September 15, for the midnight reading of "El Grito," Miguel Hidalgo's 1910 "cry of independence," read from the balcony of the Municipal Palace.
The Desert Hot Springs Motel
The Desert Hot Springs is pretty small, only 4 rooms, but it is the only hotel designed by John Lautner, the architect that designed the Elrod house. The hotel is a fantastic blend of indoor and outdoor space like all Lautner buildings and has become something of an interpretive Lautner experience.
