Today, depart in the early morning to travel to Cappadocia. Enroute, visit the 13th-century Caravanserai of Sultanhan, a large abandoned city and shelter in Cappadocia, built on the Silk Road, whose main portal gate is considered a fine example of Turkish Seljuk art. Continue to Cappadocia. A region of surreal rock formations and incredible cultural heritage, Cappadocia is home to rock- cut temples, ancient underground cities, and unparalleled landscapes. Visit “Fairy Chimney”-its iconic volcanic cones. The thick clusters of rosy rock take on peculiar shapes-look for a dolphin, Napoleon's hat, or the Virgin Mary as you gaze upon them. Your guide explains how the formations were naturally carved. You may also see the remarkable mushroom-shaped, chimney like rock formations that monks used as shelters, and get the chance to climb inside one to visit the quarters within. Before you move on tonight, be sure to attend the optional performance of the world-famous Optional Whirling Dervishes Dance (USD$45) The“dance” of the Whirling Dervishes is called Sema. It is part of Turkish custom, history, beliefs and culture and
represents a man’s spiritual journey, and will be a highlight of your trip to Turkey. Overnight in Cappadocia.
