Vakıflı, Samandağ

]

Between 1994 and 1997, the village church was reconstructed and expanded with assistance from the Turkish government. In 2005, Vakıflı restored its old school building, turning it into a bed-and-breakfast, with two more old houses being converted to bed-and-breakfasts.cite news|first=Adem Yavuz | last=Arslan | title=Son Ermeni Köyü: Vakıflı | url=http://www.aksiyon.com.tr/detay.php?id=22185&yorum_id=9155#yorumlar | date=2005-07-25 | accessdate= 2007-02-22 | work=Aksiyon|language=Turkish] With the help of the local government and the Association for Development of Vakıflı, an Istanbul based organization, a project for ecotourism is being implemented that aims to restore the traditional stone houses of the village.
