Located in Cappadocia, Turkey, it extends to a depth of approx. 60m and contains over 100 tunnels, galleries, and chambers.

It is home to the Fairy Chimney rock formations, an ancient Byzantine castle, and the Mutlu Kapı (Happy Door) arch.

Avanos and Potteries are revered for their traditional pottery-making techniques, which have been passed down through generations. The pottery is hand-thrown and decorated with unique designs, making each piece unique. The clay used to make the pottery is sourced from the nearby Red River, and the kilns used to fire the pottery are wood-burning. This process has been used for centuries and is a source of great pride for local artisans.

In Avanos, visit an authentic family-run pottery workshop located in an underground cave. Clay from the Kızılırmak (Red) River was first used in pottery production by the Hittites prior to 1700BC and continues as an art form today. Watch a master demonstrate how to make a pot, and watch the painters and glazers apply their delicate patterns. Have a go at the potter’s wheel yourself and make your own unique pot if you wish.
