Uçhisar village

Uçhisar, which is situated on the edge of Göreme National Park, is dominated by a 60-meter-high castle-mountain, which is visible over a wide distance and has the form of a large cylindrical tower.

This massif is crisscrossed by numerous underground passageways and rooms, which are now mostly blocked or impassable. They served as residential areas, as well as cloisters in Byzantine times. Originally, around 1,000 people lived in the castle, but it is no longer inhabited today. The landscape is also marked by the fairy chimneys scattered through it.

Kaymaklı

Kaymaklı underground city is contained within the citadel of Kaymaklı in the Central Anatolia Region of Turkey. The houses in the village are constructed around the nearly one hundred tunnels of the underground city. The tunnels are still used today as storage areas, stables, and cellars.

The underground city at Kaymaklı differs from Derinkuyu in terms of its structure and layout. The tunnels are lower, narrower, and more steeply inclined. Of the four floors open to tourists, each space is organized around ventilation shafts. This makes the design of each room or open space dependent on the availability of ventilation.
