It is set in a stunning location, surrounded by water – the narrow strait of the Bosphorus and the serene Sea of Marmara separating Europe from Asia.

CAPPADOCIA

CAPPADOCIA, in other words katpatuka, Land of Beautiful Horses. Cappadocia is one of the flowers of the world with history, one of the most amazing geography, and  variety of culture it has. Hence, this extraordinary feature has drawn attention of the world and has been included into World Heritage List by UNESCO in 1985. Turkey is one of the nine countries taking place in World Heritage List.
 
History of Cappadocia
The earliest record of the name of Cappadocia dates from the late 6th century BC, when it appears in the trilingual inscriptions of two early Achaemenid kings, Darius I and Xerxes, as one of the countries (Old Persian) of the Persian Empire. In these lists of countries, the Old Persian name is Katpatuka, the land of beautiful horses.
 
History of Cappadocia dates back to Paleolithic Age. The prehistoric settlements of the area are Koskhoyuk (Kosk Mound) in Nigde, Aksaray Asikli Mound, Nevsehir Civelek cave and, in the southeast, Kultepe, Kanis and Alisar in the environs of Kayseri. First known local people in history of Cappadocia are Assurians, establishing trade colonies in Anatolia and formed first trade colonies. Today they are turned into cave hotels of Cappadocia.
 
This area with unusual topographic characteristics was regarded as sacred and called, in the Scythian/khatti language, as "Khepatukha" meaning "the Country of the People of the Chief God Hepat". The tablets called Cappadocian Tablets and the Hittite works of art in Alisar are of the important remains dating from 2000s B.C. After 1200s B.C., the Tabal principality, of the Khatti Branches of Scythians, became strong and founded the Kingdom of Tabal.
 
Following the Late Hittite and Persian areas, the Cappadocian Kingdom was established in 332 B.C. During the Roman era, the area served as a shelter for the early escaping Christians. There are also several underground cities used by early Christians as hideouts in Cappadocia. After Romans, Cappadocia was under domination of Seljuk's and Ottomans.
 
Location of Cappadocia
Cappadocia Region located in the center of the Anatolian Peninsula; in the center of what is now Turkey, with its valleys, canyons, hills and unusual rock formations. (Rose Valley, Love Valley, Monk's Valley, Zelve Valley, Ihlara Valley, Dervent Valley) you are able to see them through "red tour" and "green tour". Cappadocia is surrounded by Aksaray, Kayseri, Kırsehir, Nigde and Nevsehir city where these rock formations are widespread as to the others.
 
The relief consists of a high plateau over 1000 m in altitude that is pierced by volcanic peaks, with Mount Erciyes (ancient Argaeus) near Kayseri (ancient Caesarea) being the tallest at 3916 m. The boundaries of historical Cappadocia are vague, particularly towards the west. To the south, the Taurus Mountains form the boundary with Cilicia and separate Cappadocia from the Mediterranean Sea. 
 
To the west, Cappadocia is bounded by the historical regions of Lycaonia to the southwest and Galatia to the northwest. The Black Sea coastal ranges separate Cappadocia from Pontus and the Black Sea, while to the east Cappadocia is bounded by the upper Euphrates, before that river bends to the southeast to flow into Mesopotamia, and the Armenian Highland. This results in an area approximately 400 km (250 mi) east–west and 250 km (160 mi) north–south.
 
Landscape  of Cappadocia
60 million years ago, Taurus Mountains raised up in 3rd geologic age. Volcanos started erupting with the compression of North Anatolian plateau. Mount Erciyes, Hasandag and Golludag, between two of them, spumed forth lava to the region. Ashes collected in the plateau formed a soft ash layer. The upper side of ash layer was covered with a thin lava layer consisted of basalt in some areas. Basalt cracked and fell apart. Rains started eroding soft tufa by weeping through the cracks. Winds also took part in the formation. 
 
Consequently, cones with hard basalt hat came into existence. Local people gave a name to these interesting and different kinds of rocks: "Fairy Chimneys".

PAMUKKALE

Sometimes totally white, sometimes like a rainbow, but it's always a magical site to watch and swim in. Nowhere around the world has this kind of castle from ancient times because of the white color it is called cotton, and because of the ancient castle all the region is called 'Cotton Castle'. 
 
The thermal waters of the region heal the bone and heart problems of old and young people. 
 
Cleopatra Pool is the largest swimming pool of the Pamukkale where you can walk and swim on the ruins of Hierapolis ancient city which was the name of the region in ancient times.
 
Now it's under guard of UNESCO.

KONYA

The name of Mevlana who lived in Konya is known better than the name of the city itself. Primary reason for it is the hospitality of him which calls everybody to come to peace, ignoring region and lifestyle differences.
 
Come, come, whoever you are,
Wanderer, worshiper, lover of leaving,
Ours is not a caravan of despair.
Even if you have broken your vows a thousand times
It doesn’t matter
Come, come yet again, come
 
A visit of dervish convent tells us the story of their phases of life. Most advanced Seljuk architecture shows itself in this complex. In order to see the mosaic, stone and wooden art of the era we visit Karatay Madrasah, Inceminare Museum and Aladdin Hill which are the cornerstones of the city of Konya.
 
Monolithic wooden nailless doors  will be your favorite art works. After the epic local taste of 'etliekmek' in a restaurant, you will never forget this two meter-long thin bread which has small meat pieces on it.
 
With its history of thousands of years in Anatolia as first known village of the World, Catalhoyuk waits you in Konya. From city center it takes almost half an hour by car, when we arrive there we understand the meaning of it’s name ‘catal –twin, hoyuk-hill’.
 
You will be astonished by their culture, which requires burial of the dead body under the house where he spent his life. Another dazzling info is the formation of hills, citizens of the village tore down the old mud houses and built new ones on them again and again.
