About Cappadocia


The ancient region of Cappadocia lies in central Anatolia, between the cities of Nevsehir, Kayseri and Nigde. Here, the traveller finds one of the most fantastic landscapes in the world. Three million years ago, violent eruptions of the volcanoes Mt. Erciyes (3891m) and Mt. Hasan (3250m) covered the surrounding plateau with tuff. Wind and weather have eroded the soft volcanic rock into hundreds of strangely shaped pillars, cones and "fairy chimneys", often very tall, and in every shade from pink through yellow to russet browns.

Since the most ancient of times, men have hollowed out troglodyte dwellings in this soft rock, and here, at the dawn of Christianity, the early Christians made countless cave churches, chapels and monasteries. There are over 600 churches scattered through the valleys. The art style of the churches falles into two categories: the 8th and 9th centuries are the iconoclastic years, with decorations in red earth tones and symbolism in simple geometric motifs; the 10th to the 13th centuries saw decorations on a plaster base and show the lives of Christ and various saints. Interestingly, in some of the churches the frescoes of the later period have fallen off, revealing earlier decorations underneath. The architectural plan of the churches is uncomplicated.

Also in this region are a number of underground cities which were used by Christians as places to retreat to and live in until danger from their enemies had passed. These cities were well-hidden and safe. There were rooms for grain storage, stables, sleeping chambers, kitchens and air shafts. Today they are well-lit and would be an interesting part of your tour.

Goreme is an important area for shopping with its wonderful carpets and kilims, onyx souvenirs, and very fine local wines. It is also a wonderful region for trekking and for photo-safaris. The scenery is breathtaking in all four seasons: miniature poppies in the springtime, the touring hot-air balloons and flowers of summertime, autumn's grapes and blaze of gold, and the winter blanket of snow.

Hi Senay,
This is a nice photo with a very inviting exterior with great colors. I like your composition for this photo and I would have just like that the interior was more lighted so I can see part of it. TFS.

Hello Senay.
Makes me feeling hungry.! I do like the Turkish kitchen very much.
Always good admosphere in the restaurants.
Nicely captured image.
Have a fine weekend,
Jan

Hello Senay, Very cute entrance of the restaurant and inviting.

As Luc suggest, maybe with the lasso tool, circle the entrance, feather at 20% and play with curves to brighten it a little to see a little of the inside.

Well spotted! Very sharp and nice weathered textures.

Take care, Yan :)

c'nin ayyıldız şeklinde yapılmış olması çok hoş.. ama asıl en üstteki tabelanın iki yanında duran kazanları çok iyi görmüşsün.. bu yönüyle ve karede alaturka'yı (türk usulü) çağrıştıracak başka şey olmaması, tam aksi, "restaurant" yazısı, öndeki ingiliz kılıklı uşak figürü nedeniyle mizahi, hatta karamizahi bir kare çıkartmışsın şenay. tebrik ederim.

Dear Senay.
Cute photo and that inviting Gentleman stands precisely at the good spot to welcome his guests..
It loooks a bit dark there, inside, but I am sure its a goodRestaurant ^)^ (I remember from Turkish Restaurants in Holland the word*Pillitz* Chicken ..right?
And *cheers* something sounds as 'shurruffer'
You also had a good usefull advice from Luc.
Nice and points later ! a wink and bye
