Stop 1

Discover one of Cappadocia’s most unique heritage sites at Zelve Open Air Museum. Spread across three valleys, this ancient settlement features cave houses, rock-cut churches, tunnels, and a mosque carved into volcanic rock. Once a thriving monastic center and later a village, Zelve was abandoned in the 1950s, leaving behind a fascinating open-air museum that offers a glimpse into centuries of history, culture, and daily life in Cappadocia.

Paşabağları Open-Air Museum (Pasabag / Monk’s Valley)

Wander through one of Cappadocia’s most enchanting landscapes in Paşabağları, also known as Monk’s Valley or the Valley of the Priests, situated just a few kilometers from Göreme and Avanos

Stop 3

Step into a dreamlike landscape in Devrent Valley, also known as Imagination Valley, where nature has sculpted the rocks into surreal and whimsical shapes. Unlike other valleys in Cappadocia, Devrent has no cave churches or dwellings—just naturally formed fairy chimneys resembling animals and figures, like a camel, dolphin, or even a dancing couple. It’s a perfect stop for photography and letting your imagination run wild in Cappadocia’s most creative valley.

Explore the breathtaking Love Valley, one of Cappadocia’s most iconic landscapes, known for its towering, uniquely shaped fairy chimneys and stunning panoramic views. Located near Göreme, this romantic valley offers a scenic hiking trail through dramatic rock formations and lush nature. A popular spot for sunrise views and balloon watching, Love Valley is perfect for photography, peaceful walks, and soaking in the magical atmosphere of Cappadocia.

Explore one of Cappadocia’s oldest and most beloved cultural traditions at an Avanos Pottery Workshop in the historic town of Avanos, located along the banks of the Kızılırmak (Red River). This artisanal experience offers you the chance to learn and create in the heart of Turkey’s pottery capital.

Stop 6

Discover the fascinating Özkonak Underground City, carved into volcanic rock and hidden beneath the surface of Cappadocia. This ancient multi-level city was once a refuge for thousands, featuring ventilation shafts, communication tunnels, and clever defense systems. Smaller but less crowded than other underground cities, Özkonak offers a unique and authentic glimpse into the region’s mysterious past.

7

Discover Uçhisar, Cappadocia’s highest village and a captivating highlight for visitors seeking panoramic views and unique geology.

At the heart of Uçhisar stands Uçhisar Castle—a towering natural rock formation rising about 60 meters, carved over centuries into a labyrinth of rooms, tunnels, and chambers. Used historically for refuge and surveillance by Hittites, Byzantines, Seljuks, and Ottomans, it’s now open to the public for climbs with stunning views across Cappadocia, including Göreme National Park, Fairy Chimneys, and volcanic peaks like Mount Erciyes

8

Experience one of the most captivating vistas in Cappadocia at the Göreme Panoramic Viewpoint—commonly referred to as Sunset Hill or Esentepe Panorama, located about 2 km northwest of Göreme on the Uçhisar road.
