Cappadocia : Sacred City

The ancient region of Cappadocia is located in central Nevsehir. Nevsehir is a city but you can know its name as Cappadocia.

Kendi memleketim Nevşehir'i kendi gözlerimden tanıttım. Çoğu fotoğraf bana aittir, teşekkür ederim.

Millions years ago volcanic eruptions covered this area and stoned with wind. So they created interesting pillars with interesting shapes. Ancient people call them as 'Fairy Chimneys'. You can find those interesting pillars everywhere in Cappadocia.

My motherland is Cappadocia so ı have many tales to tell you :)

Digging and Finding Gold

In old times people forced to travel from to Cappadocia because of hostile enemies. So when people migrating they burried their gold and antique stuff under the ground to pick up later when they return. But most of them failed to return so ages later other people finded many golden items and gold coins in pots.

Our Family Business

Our family business is about copper.We doing it with passion for 80+ years. My grandfather's father started doing copper pods, plates and many items at Cappadocia and it passed genrations to generations.

Rumors has it that my grandfather's father find a pot with gold and give it to my grandfather so he can migrate to Istanbul and opened a Copper Factory. In years we improoved ourselves and now my father runs to company. I hope i will take over in few years later.

And now we producing copper items like that:

Maybe a pot of golden coins changed our family life, who knows.

Cappadocia : The City of Antiques, Wine and Copper

Cappadocia has many beautiy and history in it. Many antiques, copper stuff and pots. I would like to show some photos from my last visit to my motherland.

This is the Uchisar Castle of Cappadocia. It is hard to climb even today. This castle is have a great position in the area, it is in the middle of whole Nevsehir.

This is the antique shop of my one of the relevents. He have a documentary and give many antiques to Koc Museum.

The Wine

I want to talk about wine. Cappadocia has many vineyard and some of them very quality grapes. Especially red wines are very good and you can taste local wines in reastaurants and hotels.

Best of all you can enjoy the view with your local handmaded wine like me!!

Cheers!

Also hotelship in Cappadocia is advanced very much. You can stay and enjoy the view from your own hotel room or you can go inside the organic fruit gardens and eat how you want to do it.

Don't forget to go and eat local food.

I stayed in great hotel and here is the photos of it.

This is 'The Garden of Heaven' and you can see Adam and Eve falling from heaven to earth.

Exactly under of Adam and Eve pictures they have a great luxury SPA and concept of hell.
