If Walt Disney World is the happiest place on Earth, then Burj Al Babas in northwestern Türkiye might be the eeriest. Sitting near the Black Sea, the town is full of half-finished, fully abandoned mini castles—587 of them to be exact. Who built Burj Al Babas? Burj Al Babas was built by Sarot Property Group, a luxury developer that had already successfully planned and built two thermal spring hotels in the area. Even in its current state, the vision for Burj Al Babas is still obvious: European luxury in the Middle East.
