01
Göreme Panorama
Göreme Panorama, one of the famous landscapes of Cappadocia, offers a particularly impressive view, especially during sunset. From this point, you can observe ancient churches and settlements nestled in the middle of fairy chimneys.
02
Derinkuyu Underground City
After approximately 45 minutes of travel, you will arrive at the Underground City. Initially used as a natural freezer by the locals, it later served as a shelter against Arab invasions by the late Romans. With your guide’s narrations, you’ll spend about 1 hour exploring this underground city.
03
Ihlara Valley
Ihlara Valley is located 52 km away and can be reached in approximately 45 minutes after visiting the Underground City. Formed as a result of volcanic activities of Mount Hasan, the valley features a canyon 80 meters deep, shaped over millions of years by the erosive force of the Melendiz River. Although it is generally associated with long hikes, the panoramic section visited in this program involves a shorter walk — not the entire 3.5 km trail — making it more accessible for visitors.
