Exploring Cappadocia, Turkey [Walking Tour]

This video show out trip to Cappadocia,Turkey in November 2020.we stayed there for six days.

Best places to visit in Cappadocia:
1. The view from the hot air balloon
The main reason I wanted to go to Cappadocia is, obviously, the balloon ride. Although I had seen an infinite number of pictures of other travelers, I must admit that I have greatly underestimated the feeling I would have once I got up to 1000 feet above the spectacular landscape of Cappadocia.
The experience itself lasts between one hour and an hour and 15 minutes, depending on everyone’s luck.
2. Goreme Open Air Museum
Any holiday in Cappadocia certainly will involve visiting one of the most famous tourist attractions here. Personally, I consider it the core of the region. That’s because you will find out here everything you need to know about the history of Cappadocia.
3. Ikman Galleries
Instagram did it again! This time, it took my steps to the Ikman Galleries, a kind of trip in the stories with Alladin.
One of the top tourist attractions in Cappadocia. The thousands of colored carpets dress the floor, the ceiling and the walls of the rooms.
And from the crystal lamps, you expect a spirit to meet your three desires. In addition to upholstery and fabrics with sophisticated patterns, here you can find just about everything that your heart of authentic souvenirs collector can desire.

4. The Sunset Point in Goreme
I remember the first day I was desperately looking for the best place to watch the sunset in Cappadocia.
After several options, I chose a classic place, already famous for it. Even if we shared the field with hundreds of people, the experience was magical.
It is located on the Aydın Kırağı Seyir Yeri Street, exactly where a large flag of Turkey towers in the city of Goreme.
It’s great to watch the sky get shades of red, while the valleys are lit up. Otherwise, I will let the pictures speak for themselves.
5. Avanos
Famous for pottery, crossed by a beautiful river on which dozens of ducks swim, full of life during the evenings, very quiet during the days, colorful, small and chic. This is Avanos, a town not as famous as Goreme, but one that certainly deserves a glimpse of your time.
6. Love Valley
The look of the rocks is similar to the masculine intimate parts in such an obvious way that it leaves no room for imagination.
So, it is easy to understand why this name was chosen, rather in a euphemistic way. These natural sculptures were created by the erosion of the volcanic rocks, and some of them can even reach 40 meters tall.
7. Cavusin Village
One of the oldest settlements in Cappadocia is the Cavusin village, halfway between Avanos and Goreme, right at the foot of Aktepe Mountain.
8. Goreme
Most tourists who come to Cappadocia on vacation, choose to stay in Goreme and that’s because it is the most famous city in the region and one of the top places to visit in Cappadocia. Here, you can find most of the hotels, restaurants, shops, and agencies for hot air balloon rides.
9. Pasabag or Monks Valley
Pasabag is one of the first places we have visited, due to the fact that it is halfway between Avanos, the town where we stayed, and Goreme. The name comes from “Pasa’s Vineyard” and has a lot to do with the vineyards in the area.
10. Horseback Rides & Hiking in Cappadocia
Hot air ballooning gets all the glory but there are plenty more activities in Cappadocia to help you get the best views of the valleys. Horse riding, particularly through Red and Rose Valleys, is very popular. Most rides are more suitable for intermediate riders rather than beginners due to the rocky terrain.
11.Uçhisar
The village of Uçhisar is dominated by a mammoth rock-cut fortress riddled with tunnels and caves. Just like the region's underground cities, this rocky outcrop provided villagers with protection from invaders during the Roman and Byzantine eras. The fortress can be climbed to the top, where you are rewarded with sweeping panoramas over the undulating valleys that surround the village.
12.Ihlara Valley
The narrow, verdant valley at the bottom of this deep (100 meters) gorge in southwest Cappadocia is a nature lover's delight. Hemmed in by rugged, steep cliffs, Ihlara Valley is a lush Eden of tall poplar trees and fertile farming plots beside the babbling Melendiz River, which runs for 14 kilometers from Ihlara village to Selime village.
13.Derinkuyu Underground City
Derinkuyu Underground City is Cappadocia's deepest underground shelter, and just like Kaymakli, was used by the early Christians to hide from attack. The tunnels here are quite claustrophobic in places as they travel deeper and deeper into the ground. There is a cavernous chapel area and many living and storage areas to explore in this below-ground maze. The ingenious ventilation shaft system used by Derinkuyu's inhabitants can also be seen.
