Home > Activities > Goreme: 5 Things that must attract you

3There are so many interesting places in Goreme. This year I am planning to make a visit to this place for a holiday. I have heard a lot about this place and now just can’t wait to go there and see its amazing life style and beautiful locations. I have listed a few things that made me attracted to this place

Goreme open Air Museum: It has been a member of UNESCO world heritage list and was the first two UNSECO sites in Turkey. I have researched that there are finest of rock cut churches, with beautiful wall paintings which represents unique examples of architecture and technique. Each church belongs to 10th, 11th, and 12th centuries. I love to see such historical places and would definitely visit this place when in Goreme.

Devrent Valley: It is a lunar landscape which was never inhabited. A sound interesting isn’t it? It is a very famous place where small fairy chimneys in the valley form a lunar landscape or moonscape by their strange look. It also has many different animal shapes rock like camel, seals and dolphin. This place would definitely be worth a visit.

Hot Air Balloon: It is one of the best places to fly hot air balloon. I can’t imagine flying in the balloon over beautiful Goreme landscape and stunning tourist locations like fairy chimney, pigeon house etc. I believe there are different types of balloon tours offering standard balloon tour and deluxe balloon tour. They also offer VIP balloons to celebrate special occasions like birthdays, weddings, anniversary etc.

Turkish Night Show: I always wanted to see the live performance of Turkish music and belly dancers. The Turkish night show highlights the dance traditions of various regions of turkey. The show has different dance performance depicting love, marriage etc. The dance show depicts a love story where everyone is invited to dance. The highlight of the show is belly dance.

Kaymakli underground city: When I heard this for the first time I was very inquisitive to know what it is and how it would have been formed. It is a village that have houses constructed around nearly one hundred tunnels of the underground city.
