The green valley is dotted with mushroom-shaped rocks, the height of which reaches 40 meters in some places. They consist of soft tuff and hard basalt at the top. Millions of years ago, after the eruption of several volcanoes, this area was covered with lava. For thousands of years sun, wind and rain have created various stone structures in the valleys of Cappadocia. Due to the bizarre phallic shape of the “mushrooms,” there is a local belief that a child conceived in this valley is sure to be happy and prosperous.

Uchisar

After breakfast, set off to conquer new places in Cappadocia. On your trip, the basic rule applies: the further, the more interesting. Once you decide that the Valley of Magical Creatures is the most exciting sight, the ancient settlement of Uchisar will appear in front of you. Huge fortress anthills appear before your eyes. An ancient city carved into pliable tufa rocks. The three main fortresses are three rocks: Main Fortress (Bashhisar), Medium (Ortahisar), Extreme (Uchisar). The most amazing thing is the preserved view of the city. You will not see any destruction there, everything looks like people still live in these stone houses and send beacons. It is also interesting that under all the stones there are active water springs and this fills the city with life, mysterious shrouds. Also, you will find there an old church that creates an atmosphere of sanctity. All the landscapes of Uchisar are beautiful material for photos. Take pictures against the background of the fortresses, photograph the area separately. You will have aesthetic pleasure looking at the photos.

Pashabag

Pashabag or the Valley of the Monks is a place worth traveling long distances for – one of the most beautiful valleys in Cappadocia. You will understand this by the number of tourists admiring the local beauty. We have to endure the crowds, but it’s worth it. Valley of giant two- and three-headed porcini mushrooms that looks much more interesting in real life than on the site pages. This place is called the Valley of the Monks, the name is quite justified, in one of the three-headed mushrooms the church of St. Simeon is carved. This amazing place is also called the Valley of Vineyards and you will see for yourself how valid this name is. It is really full of vineyards from which Cappadocian wine is made.

Valley of the Pigeons

The Valley of the Pigeons is undoubtedly the most beautiful place in Cappadocia. Since ancient times, people in Cappadocia have grown grapes, but the soil here did not have high fertility. Therefore, people solved this problem with the help of valuable pigeon droppings. In the 19th and 20th centuries, local residents decided to build thousands of pigeon houses in the rocks themselves. To attract the pigeons, they painted the rocks with colorful patterns. Pigeons are still appreciated here. You will be surprised by the number of these wonderful birds and the hills with many windows – houses for them. These soft tuffs are more like giant sand castles. You will be amazed by what you see.

Panorama of Goreme

You will visit the best viewing platform in Cappadocia. On the hill “Panorama Goreme” you will have the best views of the cosmic valleys of Cappadocia and even the volcano Egies, which raged on these areas 6000,000 years ago. For you the world seems to stop and you will observe unearthly landscapes and hear the touch of the wind. Photos against this background turn out to be unreal.

Onyx and leather workshop

You will visit an interesting place, an onyx and leather workshop. Everyone knows about the quality of Turkish leather goods, but not many are aware of the extraordinary products made from onyx in a variety of colors. For the Turks, especially those who live among stone statues, working with natural materials is of particular importance. You have already met with the clay production, in the Onyx shop you will admire handmade stone works. According to the understanding of each person, a stone can be used to decorate a product, but here the masters do their best to decorate the stone themselves. Make patterns on them, paint them. Like competing with the wind in mercy when working on a fort.

Sultankhana Caravan shed

You will be back on the streets. You will visit a very old Ottoman place – Caravanserai – an 18th-century inn for those who followed the Great Silk Road, transported complicated goods, returned with no less refined purchases and expected wealth and luxury. You will be amazed by the huge 13 meter gate and the Turkish decoration. On the territory of the caravanserai there were chambers, baths, a mosque and a large courtyard. Entry into this territory was charged by the caravans, and the services already provided on the territory of the palace were included in this amount. This inn offers you the opportunity to feel like a weary traveler of that time who needs rest for future successes.

Konya

Next stop for a hearty lunch in a large and very beautiful city of Konya. Like many cities in Turkey, Konya has evolved over time, absorbing the diverse cultures of its rulers. This city is mentioned in the Bible, which confirms its position in the list of cities of great religious value, and of course not only Christian, but mainly Muslim.

The city is rich in mosques and mausoleums, where thousands of pilgrims gather every year. It is interesting that Omar Khayam lived and worked in this city. When looking at cityscapes, remember that the rulers of this city artificially slowed down the industrialization process in order to preserve its uniqueness as long as possible. You will definitely love this place.

After visiting the city of Konya, drive to Alanya again. And at 20:00 you will reach your hotel. Pleasant memories of such intense 2 days in Cappadocia will stay with you for a long time.
