A curated journey through the experience
Cappadocia
The Cappadocia region is the place where nature and history are most beautifully integrated in the world. While geographical events were creating the Fairy Chimneys, people also carved houses and churches into these fairy chimneys, decorated them with frescoes, and carried the traces of thousands of years old civilizations to the present day.
6 hoursKaymakli Underground City
Going for 40 meters under the ground, Kaymakli Underground City has a capacity of 5000 people. It is very exciting to imagine that how people lived here. A visit to Kaymakli Underground City is a must on your Cappadocia holidays.
45 minutesPigeon Valley
Pigeon Valley is the valley where ancient caves are formed, consisting of a soft layer formed by lava and ashes, starting from Uchisar and extending all the way to Göreme. It got its name from the dovecotes carved into the soft rocks for the pigeons fed by the people of the region.
15 minutesZelve Open Air Museum
Zelve open-air museum, which once was the home of one of the largest communities in the region, is an amazing abandoned cave village. Zelve is situated about 7 km from Göreme. Christians and Muslims lived together here in perfect harmony until 1924. Then Christians had to leave the country because of the exchange of minorities between Greece and Turkey, and Muslims in their turn were forced to leave the village in the 50s, when life became too dangerous because of the risk collapsing as a result of erosion. They set up a modern village, a little further on, to which they gave the name Yeni Zelve (New Zelve).

45 minutesUchisar
Uchisar Castle is the only place where Erciyes and Hasan Mountain can be seen together. The place where the creator of Mount Erciyes, that is, the Cappadocia Region, can be seen best is Uçhisar Castle. Since the Roman period, many rooms, houses, shelters, warehouses, cisterns, tombs, and cellars have been carved into it, and it has been an important defense point against Arab raids. Large stone cannonballs used for defense against attackers were kept on it. Uchisar Castle, which was used both as a watchtower and a defense castle, maintained its importance during the Seljuk and Principalities periods.

The valley, which was used as a retreat by the priests and monks during its period, includes many rock-cut monasteries, churches, chapels and settlements, as well as tunnels and mills.
