THE VILLAGE UÇHİSAR - Aşağı Mahalle
Looking at Uçhisar from a distance, it appears to be one huge rock, broken and riddled with holes. Coming closer you see more and more houses built all around and into the stone. Narrow streets are squeezed in between the structures, along with mosques, fountains and yards. This is the village of Uçhisar with its fortress, the kale, situated at the highest point in the region.

See the small Cave Hotel ASMALI CAVE HOUSE in Cappadocia, the individual Suites, as well as the terraces from a different angle.
Wether for individual travelling amateur photographers or for members of planned photo tours; Cappadocia's beauty is the ideal spot. Marvelous views, unusual valleys and formations, people and architecture.
In 1985 Göreme National Park and six other rock sites of Cappadocia
were recognised by UNESCO
as one of the world's spectacular natural and
cultural site and added to the World Heritage List.
See
a different small world, still full of history and traditions,
characterized by friendly and hospitable people
living in an unspoiled
village in the heart of Cappadocia.
Hidden
churches and monasteries hidden in caves, beautiful valleys and rock
formations - nature and a breaze
of adventure for the curious explorer.
Childhood memories and stories from the eldest of Uçhisar and Cappadocia. See old photos and read about their past lives. There are happy as well as sad stories and maybe sometimes, with the passage of time, truth and fiction melt into one another.
