About Göreme

Göreme ligt in het hart van Cappadocië, een surrealistisch landschap van schoorsteenrotsen, grotkerken en ochtendluchten vol heteluchtballonnen.

De huizen en hotels van Göreme zijn uitgehouwen in zacht vulkanisch gesteente, en het stadje wordt omringd door valleien met kegelvormige schoorsteenrotsen die door erosie zijn gevormd. Het Openluchtmuseum van Göreme verzamelt in de rotsen uitgehouwen kloosters en kerken waarvan de fresco's, geschilderd door Byzantijnse monniken, nog steeds van kleur gloeien, vooral in de Donkere Kerk.

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