    Our initial booking of hotair balloon ride was from other 3rd party agent -kl**k- and it got cancelled because of the weather. We immediately contact them and ask politely if they can move us to the next day schedule but sad to say they did not and refund us right away. Plan got changed that we had to book another hotel for a night & move our flight to IST just to experience our 1st hotair balloon ride. Great thing I know trip also offer the same ride so I check if they have available schedule on the next day blessing that they have but with a very expensive rate because of last minute booking. But the cost is worth of the experience we had. It was really worth it! The hot air balloon experience was amazing! Everything was well-organized from the pick-up to the flight itself. The views over Cappadocia during sunrise were absolutely unforgettable, and the ride felt very safe and comfortable the whole time. We also got small packed breakfast before heading to the ride.

    Turkey is now a country where 80 to 90 percent of the population believes in Islam, but its unique geographical location makes it a region where religious exchanges converge, with many religious relics, one of which is the Grammy Open Air Museum. Now it seems to be surrounded by mountains and has unique scenery, but in the past it was a place where people could practice piety while avoiding religious persecution!

    There are two underground cities in Cappadocia. Kaymakli Underground City is the larger one and is a must-see attraction when traveling to Cappadocia. It gives people a mysterious feeling and makes people linger.

    Goreme National Park is famous for its fantastic volcanic rock landforms and is known as the "Moon's surface". It has conical rock columns, cave churches and underground city ruins. The "Fairy Chimneys" (fairy chimneys) near Urgup are a group of pointed stone columns formed by erosion. They look like mushrooms and castles, combining natural wonders with the heritage of Byzantine murals. It is particularly stunning to overlook them by hot air balloon.

This beautiful and historic castle is located in the town of Uchisar, in the Goreme Area of Cappadocia, Turkey.The castle is built on a hilltop overlooking the town and the surrounding desert landscape and is the highest point in Cappadocia. Many people visit the castle not just for its history but for its panoramic views of the region, which on a clear day, shows Mount Erciyes in the distance. Must Visit when you are Visiting Cappadoccia. This is very Beautiful

    The huge rock cliffs are very spectacular and appear rose-red, especially at sunset in the evening. Standing across the valley, you can see the entire view. There are trails in the canyon that lead to the campsite.

    Take a walk in Pigeon Valley After taking the hot air balloon, we returned to the hotel for breakfast and rest, and then took a car to Pigeon Valley. Pigeon Valley is famous for the many pigeons that gather there. Indeed, there are many pigeons near the entrance of the scenic area. Pigeon food is sold in the souvenir shop, and some tourists buy it to feed it, so the pigeons are all around the entrance of the scenic area. You can walk down from the entrance of the scenic area, a very long valley, the road is not very flat, and it is bumpy, but it also adds the fun of adventure. The main road is very long and has many turns and goes down all the way. Since we have very little time, we didn’t reach the end and couldn’t see the end, which is a pity. There are also some small roads, which are not as smooth as the main road, and generally there is no road in front after walking for a while, so you need to turn back. But there are treasures on the small road. I picked up a hot air balloon carved in stone and a round stone, which I took back home as a souvenir. The souvenir shop at the entrance of the scenic area has very unique products, and the porcelain is very beautiful. By the way, there is also a tree full of blue eyes, which is very beautiful. Although Pigeon Valley is a free attraction, I think it is still very fun.

    Absolutely excellent landscape, these stone pillars are very huge and complete, and are arranged in an orderly manner. Everything is the best arrangement of nature. Standing on the uphill slope and looking here, there are some artificial decorations for taking pictures.
