The church dates back to the 9th–10th centuries and was carved entirely out of soft volcanic rock. Though its decoration is simple, the geometric reliefs and crosses reflect the spiritual devotion of early Christian monks who once lived here. It’s a peaceful and inspiring stop to end the hike, surrounded by the silence and natural beauty of the valley.

About Göreme

Göreme fica no coração da Capadócia, uma paisagem surreal de chaminés de fadas, igrejas rupestres e céus de madrugada cheios de balões.

As casas e os hotéis de Göreme estão escavados na rocha vulcânica macia, e a cidade é rodeada de vales de chaminés de fadas em forma de cone moldadas pela erosão. O Museu ao Ar Livre de Göreme reúne mosteiros e igrejas escavados na rocha, cujos frescos, pintados por monges bizantinos, ainda brilham de cor, sobretudo na Igreja Escura.

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