1. In this part, you will climb to the peak of Uçhisar Castle. This tall volcanic-rock outcrop is one of Cappadocia’s most prominent landmarks and is visible for miles around. Riddled with tunnels, it was used for centuries by villagers as a place of refuge when enemy armies overtook the surrounding plains.

   45 Min.

2. Enjoy a buffet-style lunch in Avanos, offering a wide range of Turkish food including mezes, salads, meat and vegetarian dishes and desserts. Still in Avanos, visit an authentic family-run pottery workshop located in an underground cave. Clay from the Kızılırmak (Red) River was first used in pottery production by the Hitites prior to 1700BC and continues as an art form today.

About Göreme

Göreme liegt im Herzen Kappadokiens, einer surrealen Landschaft aus Feenkaminen, Höhlenkirchen und Morgenhimmeln voller Heißluftballons.

Die Häuser und Hotels von Göreme sind in weiches Vulkangestein gehauen, und der Ort ist von Tälern kegelförmiger, durch Erosion geformter Feenkamine umgeben. Das Freilichtmuseum von Göreme versammelt in den Fels gehauene Klöster und Kirchen, deren von byzantinischen Mönchen gemalte Fresken noch immer in Farben leuchten, besonders in der Dunklen Kirche.

Top-ranked sights in Göreme: Pigeon Valley (Güvercinlik Vadisi), Devrent Valley (Devrent Vadisi), Monks Valley (Pasabag Vadisi).
