      Canyon and the place built by ancient Romans are so impressive. Amazing tube where the water was taken into village looks great. Inside you can go though the rocks and see the water stream near the wall. On the end is totally dark and stones are slippery, but young person easily get the second enter. There are also ancient tombs, which unfortunately were robbed in the past, so only the stone graves left there. What me surprised a lot are the laurel trees, where you can take the leafs for yourself. Local people make soap, oil and some other products from this. You can ask about it. they do it by theirseflves. Some of the do not know any other language than Turkish, others even cannot write and read. They are poor, but their products are pretty nice.Enter though the first tunel is free of charge, but after few hunderds meters is the guy selling tickets. It costs about 5 TL in November 2014.

      Vakifli Village, a small, rustic village of approx. 150 pop. and located approximately 20km from Antakya, Turkey, is a lovely and peaceful place to visit. You can easily get there by tour shuttles or rental car from Antakya. Part of the road is unpaved and rough, so make sure you carry water and check your tires before departure. I recommend leaving the village before nightfall, as it can get very dark. Drive carefully as you enter the village; children and cats abound. Park your car streetside or wherever you find a spot; parking is easier in late Fall when the heavy tourist season has passed. There is a magnificent ancient tree next to a water fountain from which I sipped cool spring water (and made a wish). We meandered for just a brief time to look at some of the tiny shops in the semi-open air market, where we purchased fresh vegetables and preserves. We munched on grilled corn on the cob as we walked along the stream running through the village. It began raining and so we could not prolong our stay; we'll just have to return next time, perhaps in early summer, to enjoy the weather, the people, and the history of this special place.

      This village is nice. You can visit shop with local products and armenian church. People are very friendly, but I expected more from this trip. For example guide in a the church was not able to answer at my questions about armenian church.

      Visited Vakifli along with 4 other friends when we were heading to Samandang. The only one village in Turkey where the Armenian people live. The church and their organic farming are the centre of attraction.There was an annual function the time we visited so nothing much to interact with local people the people are very warm and nice.

      Vakifli is a very old Armenian village in Antakya. The whole village is situated on a mountain side and their only source of income is agriculture and tourism. The village folk does mostthings together and are very warm to visitor. It has a small church and a couple of B&Bs. The scenery and weather is also amazing.It is a must see in Antakya, can spend 2-3 hours there. There is also a very nice cafe which also serves great breakfast. I also think that, it could be a great couple's retreat, with all the tranquility, peace, and nice weather.

      An old laid-back Armenian village located uphill close to Antakya. Not much sites to visit except the Church.Visit to the Church is a must as there is a small stall in the courtyard. Women's cooperative of Vakifli sell home-made liquors and jam. Cinnamon and plum are must try's. If you want to go classic, try berries and cherry. If you want to go exotic, try rose, orange blossom, etc

      I guess the title explains a lot. This is a quaint old Armenian village. All the villagers engage in organic agriculture, and are proudly displaying - selling their achievements. MUST VISIT!!!

      This small armenian village is almost a paradise. It's very serene, very calm and full of very friendly people. It has a church which is renovated in late 19th century. Handcrafts prepared by locals are sold both in the court of the church and at the café in the center of the village. Lots of organic products are also sold in these two spots: orange and lemon syrups, different sorts of jams, olives and most importantly pomegranate molasses, a speciality of the region. In fact, the best pomegranate molasses are the ones sold here. Their products are also sold on-line at the following address: http://www.bukoop.org/13_vakfl-koyu-tarmsal-kalknma-kooperatifiHaving some tea or coffee at the village café and listening to the silence is a best way to enjoy this lovely village.

      Not easy to get to up the winding up hill roads. You need a decent vehicle to get there. Nice Armenian church and store. People friendly. Great views of the area
