Cappadocia
The Emperors’ Route
A collaboration of the erupting mountains, mystic rivers and cruel winds over thousands of years created a most unique scenary in the world and built the famous ‘’ Fairy Chimneys’’ in Cappadocia.This miraculous landscape has been home to many civilisations like Assyrian, Hittite, Frig, Pers, Byzantine, Seljuk and Ottomans.
Cappadocia was one of the most important places in spreading periods of the Christian religion. In a way, the Cristian Church owes its existance to caves of Cappadocia, because first Christians escaping from persecution of the Roman Empire in the 2nd century B.C. came to Cappadocia, and finding the underground cities, they secretly settled and hidded here.
The peculiar geography of the surrounding areas make Cappadocia a perfect location for those who want to combine nature with history in their trip.
