5 days in Cappadocia Itinerary

Famed for its landscape of unusually shaped stone formations and churches cut into the natural rocks, Goreme sits in the central part of the country, an area originally settled during Roman times.

Step out of Goreme with an excursion to Kaymakli Underground City in Derinkuyu--about 32 minutes away. There's still lots to do: appreciate the extensive heritage of Goreme National Park, explore the fascinating underground world of Uchisar Castle, see Off-Road Tours, and take an in-depth tour of Goreme Open-Air Museum.
