Write an entry Entries about this placeI was lucky by NorvallLouWhoThe day I spent there was one of the days where the moon is in the sky most of the day. I took photos in black and white… it looks like a moonscape in many of the pictures, except for this big beautiful full moon in the background. The people here, and most places in Turkey are wonderful and very well versed in the history of the area. Don’t miss the underground cities. Take batteries… they can be hard to find in areas this remote. over 5 years agoevery on should see once... by mistletoeThe naturally created houses appeal the people who been there!!Kapadokya has a interesting atmosphere ,especially in autumn(in y opinion) coz everywhere is covered in yellow,brown and orange..magnificient!!! over 5 years agoUntitled by sarastiberIn Ürgüp: Alfina is a really nice cave hotel and Sofra is the restaurant with the best prices and the greatest food, and nice owners (but they are no interior decorators…) over 6 years agoUntitled by MomLes
Kapadokya is simply amazing. We went twice in 2006, once to see the eclipse of the sun, and later to show our Turkish ‘daughter’ one of the jewels of her country. The scenery is stunning, the history is absorbing, and the locals are fine, decent people. I’d go back there any time. We did the balloon thing. A once-in-a-lifetime treat I wouldn’t have missed for anything. Wonderful place. over 6 years agoUntitled by globallagartoThis is one of the most amazing places on earth. The natural beauty of the tufta formations and peaks, and the multi-colored canyons is nothing short of breathtaking. But add to this the fact that early Christians and others carved out thousands of “apartments” within these tufta formations connected by horizontal and vertical crawl spaces. Some even have underground escape tunnels of a mile or so. There are churches carved out of the tufta that have beautiful relief sculptures and frescoes on the walls and ceilings. And nearby there are underground cities dug several levels deep. This is no doubt one of the most amazing places on earth. over 6 years agoSee all 13 entries |
