... visit the most unusual region of the Earth, settled... under the ground.
For thousand years people have been living in Cappadocia under the ground. The were building giant underground cities of nine-ten floors. Their houses were cut in mountains.

Every church is decorated with ancient wall paintings – one of the oldest on the planet – that refer to the centuries VI-VII A.D.
... have a rest in the heavenly Zemi Valley. This is an oasis in the middle of the poured volcanic ash, forming the surface of Cappadocia. Here it is warm all the year round, the birds are singing, the grass and the gardens are vividly green. Here the vineyards are planted on the sand; due to them the wines of Cappadocia are known not only in Turkey, but in the whole world. And this is merited! You will make sure of it when you taste these wines.
