Goreme Open Air Museum

Goreme's open-air museum has many churches built by early Christians in the Cappadocia region, where you can explore the fascinating design and landscape of the volcanic rocks. This is related back to the fourth century, this area was hosting the life of the monastery, where the persecuted Christians fled to it. It was an appropriate place for protection, thanks to its distance from the main transport routes and for its location among the rough rocks. Where almost every rock mass was carved in places of worship where sacredness and art were incorporated everywhere. This area was included in UNESCO World Heritage List in 1985.
