What makes Cappadocia Green Tour ( Inc Lunch ) a unique experience ?
Ozkonak Underground City, has all the usual amenities found in other underground complexes across Cappadocia, such as wine and oil presses, stables, cellars, storage rooms, refectories, and chapels. Unique to the Derinkuyu complex and located on the second floor is a spacious room with a barrel vaulted ceiling. It has been reported that this room was used as a religious school and the rooms to the left were studies. Between the third and fourth levels is a vertical staircase. This passage way leads to a cruciform church on the lowest level. The large 55 m ventilation shaft appears to have been used as a well. The shaft also provided water to both the villagers above and, if the outside world was not accessible, to those in hiding.
Red Valley (Kizilcukur) is one of the best places to watch the sunrise and sunset in Cappadocia. The valley is located in the middle of Goreme National Park named after the red colored tuff rocks and fairy chimneys spread through the valley. The valley is also one most popular places to see in Cappadocia.
Red Valley has such a beautiful landscape in a dreamy crimson color that attracts its visitors. We can say that it is the most beautiful valley of Cappadocia.
Rose Valley trail is a loop trail that connects to Red Valley trail. As we got lost and couldn’t find the right path at first, we wasted a lot of time. We decided to skip a part of the Rose Valley trail, to get to the Red Valley sunset point on time. You can do the full loop if you start earlier.
The village may have been called Kodessane in the early Christian era.[2]
In 2011 the American Duke Dillard moved to Çavuşin with his family and set up the Captivating Cappadocia website which has photos and information on the village
The small town is dominated by a 90-metre-high (300 ft) rock-castle in the centre of the town, which is called Sivrikaya by the inhabitants. It is an extraordinary example of the rock-cut architecture which is typical of the region and is believed to have served as a refuge from attackers in Byzantine times. The town also contains the Cambazlı Kilise (‘Church of Acrobats’), a cross-in-square church with 13th-century wall paintings which is now used as a storehouse.
Pigeon Valley, thousands of pigeon houses carved into the rock. It is a surreal vision: an outrageously phallic landscape straight out of a Salvador Dali painting. The conical formations are the result of volcanic eruptions that took place millions of years ago. Eons of wind, rain and other forces of nature have eaten away at the volcanic rock creating tufa, a soft and malleable stone. Many of these cones, known as fairy chimneys, contain caves and labyrinths
