Cappadocia: Zelve Valley

The more I travel, the more I realize that places that are famous and full of tourists are often that way for a reason. Cappadocia is such a place. Photos of Cappadocia decorate the walls of every single hostel in Turkey so I kind of knew what to expect. I knew there would be ‘fairy chimneys’. I knew there would be ‘underground cities’. I knew there would be hidden ‘cave churches’ full of treasures & well-preserved Byzantine art and that the region had a long, Christian history.

As it turned out, Cappadocia is not only about fairy chimneys, underground cities or hidden churches. It is greater than the sum of its parts, an amazing combination of natural beauty and human construction that defies imagination. Photos can never capture what Cappadocia is all about. So make sure to visit yourself, as always.
