Be enchanted by the fantastical countryside of Cappadocia and the underground city of Kaymakli

This short adventure in Turkey’s Central Anatolia region takes you to not only some of the earth’s most impressive natural rock landscapes, but the labyrinthine world that exists below them – some 36 ancient underground cities dating back as far as four millennia.
