Cappadocia: Turkey's great treasure


I LOVE the small town of Cappadocia- it's in Turkey. In the middle.


Cappadocia is in a hilly, desert area.

Sometimes it has snow.
 

And sometimes it doesn't.
 

But when it snows, it’s really beautiful.

It has a big castle called Uchisar.


Look how tiny it is!
 

No, but it's actually big- those are caves and tunnels carved into the stone.

It has a beautiful view.
 

Lots to see.
 

There are flowers in Cappadocia.

There are many small towns in Cappadocia- this is Gerome, the town I stayed in. It's the best.

Did I mention Cappadocia has caves? 

There is a whole underground city, with miles of tunnels; early Christians used this underground labyrinth to hide from, and confuse, the Romans. There are all sorts of clever booby traps and decoy tunnels that were implemented.

Cappadocia has balloons.
 

A lot of balloons.

They come up with the sunrise.

This is something you want to see.
 

You want to visit Cappadocia- like these smart people.
 

No really, come visit here.

Right now.


Like this guy.
 


Thanks for reading to the end- here's an extra pic.
