Day 1: Exploring Goreme National Park — The Heart of Ancient Christianity
The journey begins with a visit to Goreme National Park, one of the most iconic sites in Cappadocia. This open-air museum is famous for its volcanic rock formations that have been carved into homes, churches, and monasteries by early Christian communities.

After breakfast, the adventure continues with a visit to one of Cappadocia’s mysterious underground cities, such as Derinkuyu or Kaymakli. These vast subterranean complexes were used by ancient inhabitants for protection during invasions and wars.
