Cappadocia in central Turkey is perhaps most well-known for the panoramic view of hundreds of hot air balloons gently ebbing and flowing above valleys and volcanic “fairy chimney” formations. Though it is but one of the many things to do in Cappadocia, hot air ballooning is one of the most popular activities in the region for a number of reasons.

#bucketlistreboot Gorome Open Air Museum This Unesco World Heritage site is an essential stop on in Cappadocia. This is a monastic settlement that housed some 20 monks and sisters rock-cut churches, chapels and monasteries. The paintings on the walls have partially destroyed due to time . Hence we can only imagine how grand it was previously . So I can only refer to the pamphlet or read from the website on what supposed to be on the wall. The Karanlik Church, which has the best preserved , will be the most important part of your visit to the Goreme Open Air Museum. A separate ticket is required for entrance to the Dark Church.

One of the world's most beautiful towns, Turkey's Göreme town. Göreme is located in eastern Turkey, the westernmost point of the Asian continent, with unique landforms in the Cappadocia region, specifically in the province of Nevşehir in central Anatolia. Around the 14th century BC, the Hittite people lived here by carving caves, and the Hittite kingdom was once the most powerful country in western Asia. Göreme is a small town running north and south. It takes only half an hour to walk back and forth in the bustling area at the center of the town. Various small shops are scattered along the road, selling everything from cushion covers, felt hats, old doorbells, fridge magnets, postcards, to spinning begging bowls of monks. Whatever souvenir you want, you can find it here. The volcanic ash in Greyme has been weathered and eroded by rainwater for millions of years, forming countless strange rock formations that resemble both needle mushrooms and skinny chimneys, known as "fairy chimneys". In these seemingly barren cliffs, there are countless rock-cut churches, cave dwellings, and underground city ruins hidden. /Göreme's open-air museum is located in a valley, condensed with the characteristics and scenery of Cappadocia. It was once a gathering place for Christians after the 9th century. Many Christians took refuge in these caves, leaving murals on the walls and decorating the caves into churches. The walls of the caves still retain the images of characters from the Bible to this day, faintly discernible. /Attention! Introduce the super popular internet-famous carpet store, also the largest one in the town. It's very close to "Meihua Chinese Restaurant". From afar, you can see all kinds of beautiful carpets hanging at their door. It's even more amazing inside the store.

Recommend taking an early morning flight from Istanbul to Cappadocia to save time and prepare for the hot air balloon ride by getting used to waking up early. (Note that luggage allowance may vary, for example, I had 30kg allowance flying from Italy to Istanbul but only 15kg for domestic flights, so don't buy too much in advance!) Cappadocia is mainly known for its stone pillars, wet murals, and hot air balloons. ATV self-driving is also a must! Wander through the diverse stone pillar forest and admire the open-air museum of Graymé. Explore the underground city of Derinkuyu with a guide - it's a must! Many of the passages in the underground city can only fit one person and require constant bending, so it's quite strenuous on the back. Visit the wet murals at the Selime Monastery, similar to China's Mogao Caves, but their preservation is very poor and there is basically nothing left. The top priority - hot air balloons! Make sure to check the weather in advance before going to Cappadocia. We were lucky enough to fly on the second day, as it was said that it couldn't fly for a week before. You must wake up early for the hot air balloon ride. We booked a local tour and had to prepare to depart at 3-4am, daring to fly up before the sun rises! Generally, there are 20 people in one basket, so choosing a good spot for photos is important! You will receive a certificate after the flight! Self-driving is something I personally enjoy, it feels a bit like off-road motorcycling, but it won't let you drive too fast. There is a leader in front, so you don't have to worry about getting lost. However, if a girl chooses to sit on the back seat and not drive, she must be careful of tree branches along the road. One of the girls in the same team had her face scratched. Key point! Bring a headscarf! Mask! Glasses! Because it's really dusty! Basically, after one trip, you'll become a little mud person! But being able to appreciate such a beautiful sunset is also very worthwhile!
