This fascinating site features rock-carved churches, chapels, and monasteries adorned with vibrant frescoes depicting biblical scenes and the life of Jesus Christ. Influenced by the Cappadocian Fathers, including Basil the Great, Göreme became a hub for monastic education and religious thought.

About Goreme

Göreme sits in the heart of Cappadocia, a surreal landscape of fairy chimneys, cave churches and dawn skies filled with hot-air balloons.

Göreme's houses and hotels are carved into soft volcanic rock, and the town is ringed by valleys of cone-shaped fairy chimneys shaped by erosion. The Göreme Open-Air Museum gathers rock-cut monasteries and churches whose frescoes, painted by Byzantine monks, still glow with colour, especially in the Dark Church.
