Cappadocia
Cappadocia, a mesmerising gem in central Turkey, invites visitors to explore its surreal landscapes, unique geological wonders and historical treasures. Renowned for its iconic fairy chimneys and ancient cave dwellings, this UNESCO-listed region blends natural wonders with cultural heritage. Visitors can wander through the rock-carved monasteries of Göreme, marvel at the underground cities of Derinkuyu and Kaymaklı, or glide above the valleys in a captivating hot air balloon ride.
The region’s history spans millennia, from the Hittite and Roman eras to its role as a refuge for early Christians.
