Land of the Beautiful Horses

       

        Cappadoia is known as one of our country's the most beautiful tourist destination. It is unique to our country. In other words, this fascinating beauty exists only in our country. Cappadocia is a volcanic region which has unique historica land geological features.

        Firstly, I will give some information about where this beautiful region is , and  I will try to introduce you what makes Cappadocaia a a unique  region. Cappaocia is located on Central Anatolia.  It is surrounded by three main volcanic mountains: Hasan, Gulludag and Erciyes. It has very soft earth layers , and these layers can be easily shaped by external factors. The main externel factors that shape the layers  are floods and strong winds. In time floods and winds have shaped these earth layers and they made several landformations. These landformations are fairy chimneys, rock caves, pigeon caves and other similar landformations.

       As I said, this region is a unıque region and you cannot see the examples of these landformations in any other part of the world. This region has some really important destinations. These destinations are Goreme , Urgup, Avanos and several underground cities. Firstly, I will try to introduce Urgup. Urgup is considered the most beautiful part of the region.  Urgup is surrounded by fairy chimneys, naturel castles, pigeon holes , caves , churchs and monasteries.

      The most impressive and  biggest fairy chimneys are in Urgup. There are natural castles where you can watch the fascinating scenes of Cappadocia and sunset. A lot of people visit these castles and climb up to top of these castles for  to see this excellent scene. Urgup has streets which are full of history and culture. There are pottery workshops everywhere in Urgup. When potters make pots, you can watch them. If you want you can even try to make a pot for yourself.

        Goreme is one of the ost beautiful areas of the region. Goreme is famous for Goreme Open Air Museum. This museum has a lot of churchs , kitchens and monasteries. There are countless churches in Cappadocia region and the most important ones are in this museum. These churches are Elmalı Church, Saint Barbara Church and Dark church. These churches are very important because the figures n them are slightly damaged with respect to the other churches around the region.

        I visited this region and I liked very much. I strongly advise you to go there and see all these wonderful lands. You should go to Land of the Beautiful Horses.
