🎧 Listen to Introduction
The Goreme Valley and its surroundings are a scenic area entirely carved by erosion and feature rock-hewn sanctuaries that provide unique evidence of post-Iconoclastic Byzantine art. Dwellings, troglodyte villages and underground towns can also be seen here, which are the remains of traditional human settlements dating back to the 4th century.
