Sights Visited

Goreme Open Air Museum

The town of Goreme, an important Christian center in the early years of the Middle Ages, now houses a vast number of monasteries, churches and chapels. The Open Air Museum houses an exemplary array of these cave churches, featuring impressive frescoes dating back to centuries before.

Esentepe – Panoramic View

Located between Uchisar and Goreme, Esentepe provides a beautiful panoramic view to the visitor overlooking the town. Natural fairy chimneys mix with the buildings of the town for a stunning view visitors can enjoy before heading off to the next stop along the way.

Pasabag – Monks Valley

Pasabag is the best place to see the famous three-headed fairy chimney. Pasabag, also known as the Pasha's Vineyard, is surrounded by the stunning scenery of incredible, natural rock formations.

Devrent Valley

Situated on the northern slopes of Aktepe, 1 km from Pasabaglari (Monk's Valley) and 5 km from Avanos, the ruins at Devrent Valley spread over three valleys that also house several pointed fairy chimneys with large stems.

Avanos Pottery workshop and red river

A traditional pottery workshop is an experience not to be missed, given the ubiquitous pottery you’ll see all around Cappadocia. Set deep into the hillside, Avanos has been a center for terracotta works of art since 3000 B.C. The Red River clay used by potters gives life both to the land and to the local economy.
