Yes, that&#8217;s right, today we\u2019re talking about what to see in Cappadocia. If you are wondering <strong>what are the best places to visit in Cappadocia<\/strong>, you are in the right place!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Known for the famous \u201c<strong>fairy chimneys<\/strong>\u201d, and the <strong>stunning rock formations<\/strong>, Cappadocia is especially known for its <strong>unforgettable sunsets<\/strong> to be enjoyed from a <strong>hot air balloon<\/strong>. On the other hand, this is one of the most representative images of a trip to Cappadocia. Yes, I will post a cliche photo, but honestly, can you blame me?\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This area is located in the central region of <strong>Anatolia<\/strong>, <strong>Turkey<\/strong>, around G\u00f6reme. It is an arid and dusty land but at the same time fascinating and unforgettable, where you do not need coloured lenses or Instagram filters. Here the sunlight, whether at <strong>sunrise<\/strong> or <strong>sunset<\/strong>, will always reflect incredible <strong>hues<\/strong> on the rocks.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>I mean, are you planning a trip to Turkey? Then a <strong>tour of Cappadocia<\/strong> should be on your itinerary!\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">G\u00f6reme<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Don&#8217;t get us wrong, let&#8217;s not talk about the tooth fairy. With &#8220;fairies&#8221;, in Cappadocia, we identify the <strong>rock formations<\/strong> <strong>of tuff<\/strong>, typical of this area, called precisely &#8220;chimneys of fairies&#8221;. Also, thanks to these formations, the whole region around G\u00f6reme has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>But G\u00f6reme is not just chimneys. It is actually <strong>one of the most spectacular cities in the world<\/strong> and you will easily understand why. The village is half nestled in the hill: nothing but bonuses! Here, the houses are covered with stone and dug directly onto the side of the hill, creating a <strong>maze of rooms and caves<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>From G\u00f6reme, you can reach the valley of the same name to do unforgettable <strong>hiking<\/strong> and discover the UNESCO website called &#8220;<strong>The Open Air Museum of G\u00f6reme<\/strong>&#8220;. Try to imagine a <strong>group of monasteries, chapels and churches carved into the rock<\/strong>, which contains ancient frescoes. A visit of a couple of hours to view firsthand how Christian hermits learnt how to hide to protect themselves from domination. In Byzantine times, these hiding places became real buildings in the rock. In short, one of the places to visit in Cappadocia.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"wp-image-649\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-oKv-fT5s7JM-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"The Open Air Museum of G\u00f6reme\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-oKv-fT5s7JM-unsplash-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-oKv-fT5s7JM-unsplash-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-oKv-fT5s7JM-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-oKv-fT5s7JM-unsplash-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-oKv-fT5s7JM-unsplash-1620x1080.jpg 1620w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-oKv-fT5s7JM-unsplash.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\r\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>The Open Air Museum of G\u00f6reme<\/em><\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sunset in Cappadocia\u00a0<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Did you know that, according to one interpretation, Cappadocia&#8217;s etymology comes from Huw-aspa-dahyu, that is, &#8220;land of beautiful horses&#8221;? No, neither did I, but let&#8217;s get serious. There are still many things to discover in this region. It <strong>seems to belong to another planet<\/strong>, so follow me to get started.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This region&#8217;s history dates back to the Stone Age. Every civilisation that has set foot in this land has left an <strong>indelible heritage<\/strong>, creating a unique<strong> blend of cultures<\/strong>. Cappadocia is a truly vast and dispersive territory and may s<strong>eem uncontaminated<\/strong>, but in reality, it hides priceless treasures.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For these reasons, one of the <strong>most evocative ways to visit Cappadocia is by hot air balloon<\/strong>. From the sky, you will have a truly <strong>unique perspective<\/strong>, and you can appreciate the <strong>colours and shades of the sunset<\/strong>. Characterised by very particular rock formations, due to the erosion of wind and rain, this vast region is a <strong>spectacle for the eyes<\/strong> of travellers.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Sunset from a hot air balloon<\/strong> is absolutely one of the things to see in Cappadocia!\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" class=\"wp-image-650\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/luis-barreto-d-xHRCNwY6g1w-unsplash-1536x1026-1-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Sunset from a hot air balloon in Cappadocia\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/luis-barreto-d-xHRCNwY6g1w-unsplash-1536x1026-1-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/luis-barreto-d-xHRCNwY6g1w-unsplash-1536x1026-1-800x534.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/luis-barreto-d-xHRCNwY6g1w-unsplash-1536x1026-1-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/luis-barreto-d-xHRCNwY6g1w-unsplash-1536x1026-1.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\r\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Sunset from a hot air balloon in Cappadocia<\/em><\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Uchisar<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>In the list of cities I would like to visit, there is certainly<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Matera\">Matera<\/a><\/strong>, the Italian city of stones. So the idea of seeing a <strong>Turkish version<\/strong> <strong>in Cappadocia<\/strong> excites me. That&#8217;s right. Just a few kilometres from Goreme, the village of<strong> Uchisar<\/strong> is a unique spectacle. It must be one of your stops on the <strong>Cappadocia tour<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>We have already seen how many wonders there are in this extraordinary region. We discovered the &#8220;fairy chimneys&#8221; and the reason for hot air balloon rides, but Uchisar has a characteristic that makes it unique. Indeed, the village is <strong>entirely excavated into the rock<\/strong> and it develops on the <strong>highest peak of all Cappadocia<\/strong>. Rooms dug into the side of the mountain, tunnels, hiding places, in short walking through the \u2018streets\u2019 of Uchisar is a truly mythical experience!\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Like me, if you&#8217;re already thinking of climbing up and looking down at Cappadocia, then you need to know that you&#8217;ll find a <strong>castle<\/strong>! Well, yes. Right <strong>on the<\/strong> <strong>top of the peak<\/strong>, there is a real palace of tuff, with many tunnels and hidden cavities. Just think that inside the palace, I repeat <strong>inside, even churches have been discovered<\/strong>. In the centre of the village, there is an entire <strong>underground tunnel 100 metres long<\/strong>, which passes under the houses and connects various points of the city. Do I really have to point out that the view from the castle is breathtaking? I didn&#8217;t think so, so what are you waiting for? Add Uchisar to your list of places to visit in Cappadocia!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"wp-image-652\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-24aB6MvjTLw-unsplash-1536x1024-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"The Castle of Uchisar\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-24aB6MvjTLw-unsplash-1536x1024-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-24aB6MvjTLw-unsplash-1536x1024-1-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-24aB6MvjTLw-unsplash-1536x1024-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/teseum-24aB6MvjTLw-unsplash-1536x1024-1.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\r\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>The Castle of Uchisar<\/em><\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Ihlara Valley\u00a0<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Did I mention that Cappadocia is an arid territory? Yes, of course, but not quite. This is a blog for people who love travelling, and such fans cannot forget the<strong> green valley of Ihlara<\/strong>. In travel articles, the term &#8220;unique&#8221; is often abused, but after looking at the image below, how else could you define it? A forest inside a canyon dug by a river, divided between the light and parched colours of the rocks and the emerald green of the vegetation. I mean, I don&#8217;t know, uh, if you have a bidet instead of a heart, okay, but for me, this place is unique.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Ihlara is also the perfect valley for <strong>hiking lovers<\/strong>. Here you can take one of the most beautiful and unique walks in the world: a path that runs through endless <strong>expanses of vegetation<\/strong>, fields dotted with stumps, boulders, and <strong>jagged cliffs<\/strong> by the<strong> Melendiz Suyu River<\/strong>. The stream meanders through a gorge dominated by a <strong>100-metre-deep canyon<\/strong>, offering truly unique scenery.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Along the way, you will find many frescoed churches, testifying that the Ihlara Valley was once <strong>one of the most loved places by Byzantine<\/strong> monks for their <strong>spiritual retreats<\/strong>. How can you blame them? The silence of the valley is interrupted only by the birds singing and the flow of the water of the river. In short, a <strong>paradise<\/strong>. To refresh yourself after a long hike, you can stop and relax at the <strong>village of Belisirma<\/strong>, equipped with several <strong>restaurants by the river<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"wp-image-653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/kaan-kosemen-0EA-w-vYl_I-unsplash-1536x1152-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"The Melendiz River carves out the Ihlara Valley\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/kaan-kosemen-0EA-w-vYl_I-unsplash-1536x1152-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/kaan-kosemen-0EA-w-vYl_I-unsplash-1536x1152-1-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/kaan-kosemen-0EA-w-vYl_I-unsplash-1536x1152-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/kaan-kosemen-0EA-w-vYl_I-unsplash-1536x1152-1-1440x1080.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/kaan-kosemen-0EA-w-vYl_I-unsplash-1536x1152-1.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\r\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>The Melendiz River carves out the Ihlara Valley<\/em><\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Derinkuyu\u00a0<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Can you imagine renovating your house and <strong>discovering an underground city<\/strong> during the works? If I do mine, all I find are broken pipes and infiltration. In 1963, however, a local inhabitant found a labyrinth. And so <strong>Derinkuyu<\/strong> came to light: one of the best places to visit in Cappadocia.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>This underground city, which is located about <strong>45 minutes by bus from Goreme<\/strong>, was opened to tourists shortly after its discovery but is <strong>still used by locals<\/strong>, who use the tunnels as storage areas, stables or cellars. Derinkuyu dates back to the<strong> seventh century BC<\/strong> and is composed of a series of <strong>ancient caves excavated by hand<\/strong>. A system of caves, tunnels, and tunnels divided into <strong>20 underground levels<\/strong>. <strong>600 doors<\/strong> have been found in the subsoil, leading to as many huge rooms, used for praying, eating or sleeping.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Of course, many <strong>tools and utensils<\/strong> used to make wine have been found in Derinkuyu. Real stables for animals and <strong>even a tree<\/strong> have also been found! This underground city is one of the 200 discoveries in this area. It is well worth a visit during the Cappadocia tour.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" class=\"wp-image-654\" src=\"https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/mujo-hasanovic-kU2tKhlZE1o-unsplash-1152x1536-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"A cave leading to Derinkuyu\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/mujo-hasanovic-kU2tKhlZE1o-unsplash-1152x1536-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/mujo-hasanovic-kU2tKhlZE1o-unsplash-1152x1536-1-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/mujo-hasanovic-kU2tKhlZE1o-unsplash-1152x1536-1-810x1080.jpg 810w, https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/mujo-hasanovic-kU2tKhlZE1o-unsplash-1152x1536-1.jpg 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\r\n<figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>A cave leading to Derinkuyu<\/em><\/figcaption>\r\n<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>After talking about the places to visit in Cappadocia, it will be necessary to <strong>understand how to get to this beautiful region<\/strong> of Turkey, don&#8217;t you think?

From Istanbul, you can choose how to reach Cappadocia, but it is fair to point out that it&#8217;s <strong>800 km far<\/strong>. Therefore, in my opinion, you&#8217;ve to exclude the journey by car, preferring rather the bus journey, which lasts at least 12 hours in total.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>I don&#8217;t know about you, but I prefer to fly! <strong>From Istanbul, you can take a flight<\/strong> of about 90 minutes to <strong>Nev\u015fehir <\/strong>or<strong> Kayseri<\/strong>. The first airport is 40 km from the places you will visit, while the second airport is 70 km away. Don&#8217;t worry, once you arrive in Cappadocia, you can book a <strong>private or group transfer<\/strong>, or <strong>arrange one with the hotels<\/strong>, which offer this service. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weroad.com\/destinations\/turkey-istanbul-cappadocia\">Are you ready to book now<\/a>?\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>The trip to Cappadocia<\/strong> will undoubtedly be part of the list of things to tell your grandchildren (without even having to sweeten the story or exaggerate in detail). <strong>This region will take a place in your heart<\/strong> its sunsets will remain etched in your memory forever. Green valleys, hidden churches, arid lands coloured by the light of the sun and the inevitable journey by hot air balloon: Cappadocia is a <strong>perfect destination for those who love nature, silence and photography<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>You can visit this land <strong>alone<\/strong> or take advantage of the many organised <strong>group tours<\/strong>, which will take you to both Cappadocia and Istanbul.
