Nature’s balancing act of the chimney-like rock formations that abound throughout CAPPADOCIA’s rugged landscape are as fantastic as man’s accomplishments below its surface. Descend 8 stories to the intricate underground city of Kaymakli with its wine cellars, classrooms and tombs where early Christians fleeing persecution lived for months at a time undetected.
Visit the Byzantine churches of GOREME carved into the cliffs with frescoes dating to the 7th century, the hidden valley of Zelve and Avanos where the distinctive red clay of the Kizilirmak River has kept celebrated potters in business for a thousand years.
As unique as CAPPADOCIA is in the world, take a balloon tour to see the sites during the sunrise and watch the dance of the shadows. You can take a Jeep Safari or ATV Ride in Cappadocia as well.
