Goreme Open-Air Museum

Goreme Open Air Museum is a UNESCO heritage site and it is an essential museum to understand the Christian heritage in Cappadocia. The monastic complex consists of hundreds of caves carved into soft volcanic rocks in hundreds of years. Today, the best examples of late Byzantium frescoed churches in Cappadocia are seen inside the open air museum of Goreme. Even though guiding inside the cave churches is prohibited by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, our guide will assist you to each church and explain the structures before you enter so you can understand what you are looking at when you are inside by yourself. Your guide will wait you outside each church and complete the tour with you unlike most guides waiting you at the museum cafe.

Ozkonak Underground City

All settlements in Cappadocia have an underground city. Caves were first used as wineries and storages. They became hideouts to ancient communities in the region. Christians used the underground cities to hide and shelter from their enemies. They converted simple cave systems into complex shelters. Ozkonak Underground City is among the five underground cities visited in Cappadocia. You will be able to explore the maze-like underground city and understand how Cappadocians defended themselves from the invaders in the past. Visiting an underground city is not recommended for people with back problems, asthma, heart diseases, and Claustrophobia.
