Start off in the quaint little village of Mustafpasha, which is about 10 kilometers from Goreme. Formerly known as Sinasos, this village boasts deep historical connections to the Greek population of the region. It is emblematic of the multilayered and cultural diversity of Cappadocia. See the Greek houses and churches which once housed the significant Greek population of Anatolia.

The frescoes of the churches have deep religious meaning, and one that can be seen and enjoyed from within an arms distance. The other rooms of the monastery range from refectories and springs to housing complexes.

All roads lead to Rome they said, Cappadocia is no exception either. Housed within this region is an ancient Roman city. Harping back to the past of the region, this recently discovered city has some of the best-preserved mosaic tiles of all Anatolia. See the heating systems of the Romans and admire their engineering and skills. The archaeological excavation process is also in full view for those interested.

Dive into the Mazi Underground City, an authentic experience untouched by tourists. Explore the entire city on your own, while noticing the details of the livelihood and lifestyles of the people who called this city their home. Stand in awe at the architecture and the construction of these massive complexes.

If you are blessed with a clear sky, you might see the snowy slopes of the Mount Erciyes. This dormant volcano has played a key role in the geological formation of Cappadocia. The drive to Soganli Valley is scenic and calming. The valleys, fairy chimneys, and the Soganli Valley, a name so central to the region of Cappadocia.

This valley rivals the other well-known valleys on its historical importance, scale, and natural beauty. Its unique geology rock formations are not found elsewhere. Filled with churches, tombs, and pigeon houses, this valley should be on your list of must-see. Eat a sumptuous lunch here under the blossoms, apricot, and walnut tree, surrounded by towering cliffs.

The frescoes of these churches reveal the beliefs and hopes of the Christian community that lived in the region. These church paintings are more local and intimate to the beliefs of the community living in the region. On the way back to your hotel, stop at the Ortahisar Castle and viewpoint.
