About CAPPADOCIA

Cappadocia is a unique natural landscape of soft volcanic rock sculptured by the elements resulting in the mystical rock formations that litter the area. Visitors to Cappadocia have a choice of activities to enjoy, from fl oating over the ‘fairy chimneys’ in a hot-air balloon to admiring Byzantine frescoes. Take a spectacular hike through a rose tinted gorge or indulge in a frenzy of shopping at a covered bazaar dating from Ottoman times. Historically Cappadocia was an important part of The Hittite Empire from the times of the Pharaohs. It was one of the most important places in the periods of the Christian religion, with the first Christians trying to escape there from the Roman soldiers trying to abate the spread of the Christian religion; the surreal Cappadocian landscape provided the perfect hideaway.

CAPPADOCIA

  • When in Goreme make sure you visit the Goreme Open-Air Museum, one of Turkey’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
  • If you’re in Goreme and cravings something sweet. Don’t panic, The Cappadocia Patisserie in Goreme ships in cakes, baklava and ice-cream from Nevsehir. The perfect refreshment!
  • If you´re not afraid of heights take a hot air balloon and float over the fairy chimneys.
  • Visit the Archaelogical Museum in Kayseri. Not only does it have an impressive collection of Roman jewellery but it also has baked cuneiform tablets which helped historians better understand the Hittite Empire.
  • Sample some of the local wines at Duyurgan arap Evi in Urgup, they also have live music in the evening.
  • One of the best restaurants in Goreme is A’laturca Restaurant. They have a fantastic menu including the dishes you would expect in turkey, however for something different try Kayseri mantisi (ravioli with garlic yoghurt and spices). Check out the downstairs garden with its brightly coloured beanbags.
  • When Kemal Ataturk visited Kayseri he stayed at Ataturk Evi, an original Ottoman-era house. Stop by and see the beautiful Ottoman architecture.
  • Emperor Justinian built the citadel in Kayseri out of black volcanic stone in the 6th century. It is a beautiful building and well worth a visit.
  • Around Kayseri you will notice the conical Seljuk tombs dating from Seljuk times. Most famous is the so-called Döner Kümbet, southeast of the citadel along Talas Caddesi, but you’ll spot many others as you walk around.
  • If visiting the Ihlara Valley, follow the river and explore the ancient churches.
