About 15 km south of Ölüdeniz (and 30 km south of Fethiye), Faralya was known simply as the “village on the cliffs of the Butterfly Valley” until recently, when travellers start to take a deeper look to the village. The village itself is quite a pleasant sight to see, with its houses and gardens cascading towards the cliffs of the Valley.
Faralya is officially named Hisar Mahallesi (quarter) of Uzunyurt (a “village” actually made up of 4-5 seperate hamlets as these hamlets don’t have enough population to make them officially declared to be villages), though just “Uzunyurt” almost always refer to Faralya. However, almost nobody but the officials use this name and the village is always referred to by its ancient name of Faralya whether it be by the minibus signs or travel agencies.
Faralya is one of the most beautiful and unspoilt scenic areas in Turkey. It has woods, mountains and always a view of the sea. It is full of historical monuments and authentic villages and you can walk for hours and hours without ever meeting other people.
The area is about twenty kilometers long and leads on one side across the mountains to Patara and on the other to Fethiye. The Lycian Way, a footpath of five hundred kilometers from Fethiye to Antalya, runs right across Faralya.

I agree with most of your points, however some need to be discussed further, I will hold a small discussion with my partners and maybe I will ask you some opinion soon.
