If there's one place worthy of your holiday photo album it's Cappadocia. Created by ancient volcanic eruptions, it's a world of weird rock cones, valleys and chimneys which man has carved into cave dwellings, churches and even cities through the centuries. This two-day trip takes you through Turkey's most magical region.
Leaving early, our first stop is the Mevlana whirling dervish museum in Konya before heading for Kaymakli. Almost invisible from the surface, this subterranean city is a multi-level maze of rooms and houses carved into the earth by early Christians. Next is Pasabaglari where hundreds of rock formations rise into the sky, creating lunar-like landscapes.
After overnighting in a hotel, we'll depart to Goreme and its open-air museum. A UNESCO-protected valley of fairy chimneys, it's a complex of rock-carved churches painted with Byzantine frescoes. Prepare to be stunned as you enter its domed interiors. Later, there's time to snap up some souvenirs before setting off on your journey back.
