THIS PLACE IS UNREAL | 4,000 Year Old Cave City
The whole country of Turkey is such a mystical place with so much history yet to be discovered. From ancient civilizations to biblical sites and events, to an arrayed of mix cultures that take you all the way back to Noah and beyond. Just Amazing!!! Definitely a bucket list!!!! Thanks Gabe and stay safe❤🇺🇸
Turkey has so much history. Thanks for sharing this with the world!
You've been really making me want to go to turkey 🇹🇷
This country has a lot to see, never seen like these caves, so huge, would love to know full history about this..
See Auto didactic, Jon Levi, Wooden Nickels for more about these buildings.
Hi
So many incredible places to visit 😍
Hello
If the bible is taken as an historical record, Cappadocia is mentioned specifically by Peter. Not much detail, but he mentions the "strangers" in several places, of which Cappadocia is one. We can assume that Peter was possibly walking through those same paths, and creating gatherings to tell them about Christianity. He was on his way to Rome around 30-40 AD, by way of Corinth, and probably passed by that area along the way.
Wasn't Paul from there?
@@joanlynch5271 Paul (according to biblical record) was from a place called Tarsus - which is also in present day Turkey somewhere between Mersin and Adana. It's about 240km south of Cappadocia.
This is magical. Thank you
Hello
Wow, 13th. This is the earliest I've clicked in on your stuff. Just started watching but already gave the thumbs up. You never disappoint! Thanks for sharing and hola from QRoo Mexico!
Hi
Turkey is incredible, very rich culture , history. Love from India
It s really unbelievable what you explored there.., you re brave and what you showed us here is mindblowing..
I'm literally speechless...
Best greetings from
Paris under lockdown
👋👋
Hi
@@angelinajolie7978
Bonjour Angelina Jolie 😀👋
How are you doing?
Simply amazing 👌
Gabriel appeared to be at the peak of his happiness while exploring these caves 🙂
Turkey is likea open world museum
Very beautiful and spectacular places, thanks for sharing them👍👍💯💯💕💕👍🔔👍💕💕🇨🇭🇨🇭🤝🤝
Love to see you.... ❤️❤️
It's such a gorgeous place! Incredible! 👏👏
Excellent video about the old caves. I hope they don't commercialize this place by starting hotels. Excellent Job👍
I found this area so fascinating when I did this in 2018, well worth the hike! Nice to just sit back and watch your video on it.
Great stuff Bro!
This would be a great place to shoot a movie!
There are no more movies
Hello
Cappadocia is back! This place is truly unreal. Surely one of the places on my list to visit! I can't want to make vlogs there!
I love this so much. Thanks for showing it!
I like how you call them apartments.
Spectacular 🍁🍂🦋👒🙂🍂🍂🦋
Another great video, thank you
Absolutely Amazing, thank you
this must have been like luxury back then cuz it's possible to live in it now. you have holes where u can put your stuff, great shelter, ect. amazing
I think the acoustics rebounding off those walls in those cave 'apartments' would drive each other up the wall after a while :D
Great video by the way.
Maybe they had sound ordinances!
Hello
That was awesome Gabriel. Loved the video.
The niches are on the outside, and that its called Pidgeon valley, is a pointer that they are being used as a dovecote.
Why are there no more pigeons these days?
I've been waiting for someone to pop out their head and say boo...
Hello
Based on your reactions here, this must be one of your favourite areas, can really feel your excitement at being in this environment (and rightly so).
Gabe , one of your best videos, great job !!!
wonderful places
I was really pleased that you were so inquisitive & persisting in exploring the cases inside & all around - thank you very much, so interesting
Hi
Gabriel your doing a very TUFF and Dangerous JOB, I pray May Lord JESUS CHRIST bless you more with sound health, Mind and funds to May you keep making these informative and blessed video for travelers thanks again and stay protected Gabriel ur BRAVE.
Great vlog Gabe
truly amazing how they built those
Your videos have proven very inspirational for making things with cubes.
I love the perspective and you also have provided images, which are hard to find elsewhere
Thank you
Amazing, Thank You...
Really amazing!
Awesome Thank you Gabe🥰
Hi
Can’t wait to travel
this is a great video!! those ruins interest me
Very interesting video with full of suspense about the people who lived in these rocky hill houses and the whole video looked like a thriller movie
23:57 Yes that room is definitely for keeping birds as a source of food. It's a bird farm.
My favorite video to date.
That was Amazing Thank You 🧜♀️
Hi
You know, maybe there was a river in the middle of this, 12K years ago. It would make a lot of sense if there was.
Really fun video! 😎
Idea for Flintstone cartoon might originated from here
This trail almost killed me, I was 71 at the time,,,but it was worth the trip, nice to see again while sitting in my living room. ;)
Hi.. Gabriel.. Amazing video... Super... 🍀Grazie mille 🍀
I love Turkey and Cappadocia especially. I went there in winter so everything pretty much white and beautiful. But i definitely will come again in summer. I am your new supporter here !
It would be amazing to see it covered in snow.
Amazing place. Real history is always awesome.Really enjoyed this video. Good one brother. Hey get a good flashlight:-)
Helike Hotel has a live cam Gabe. There were lots of balloons this morning (11/15/20), they float right down in those huge crevasses and disappear from view. I read that it's called Pigeon Valley because pigeons seemed to have fertilized the farms so the farmers make homes for more pigeons to live in the chimneys. Now with that being said and seeing inside one finally, I'm thinking that those dug out places in the walls were for all those pigeons.
Gabriel, those sandals serve you well✌️. Thank you for these epic videos.
Absolutely, thanks for watching.
Surreal landscape. It's a cross between a teletubbies and flintstones landscape. Amazing.
Hi
Awesome vid ! So many empty rooms ! Lots of living places for the people but the landscape is so rough ... a real amazing and weird place for sure . You sure are living the adventure and the discoveries ! Ride On !! ;-)
A true wonder of this world....!
wow what a good day was that
Thank you so much very interesting god bless❤️🦋❤️
You have the coolest "job" 😀 awsome!
I agree. :)
Thanks for these videos. This place is on my bucket list and I have always wanted to know if you could just wander around.
Hi
@@angelinajolie7978 why are you using that name?
Because Angelina Jolie is my name
17:46 “if there’s a wild animal in here I’m screwed”. Gabriel, that’s what I’ve been thinking all along during this series. You are one brave and adventurous man to be sticking your head in all those caves. I’m surprised you haven’t come across more wildlife out there. Keep on trucking amigo! Thoroughly enjoying your videos. 👍🏻😎🇨🇦
Hello
@@angelinajolie7978 are you stupid
@@Mr-vy2lb no I am not stupid,but it seems to me that you are the one being stupid
You should get some serious brownie points from the Turkish Tourist Board, excellent presentation.
I totally missed this place bro! very good capture.
I am going to Nepal Bro next week join me there
So much better than anything currently on TV. At least that's my assumption - haven't watched TV in a while. All natural, unscripted reactions to what you were seeing - so cool. I'll bet 99.9% of the tourists who visit Cappadocia see about 1/100th of what you've seen. It's great when the beauty & awe of a place is matched by the explorer showing it on film. 11 out of 10 on this one. Btw, next time you return here, maybe you'll be staying for free in some of those caves ... with a good air mattress. Looks so dry though - getting to a nearby water source had to have been a challenge.
It's definitely my aspiration to spend a night in one of those caves, along with some candles. That would be a seriously unique experience. I'll plan to go back sometime and go for it.
Would make a great movie set.
I am guessing that the place you are visiting was a holy place in those days, humans couldn't make it.Too beautiful to be portrayed into its true form. Beyond than epic..so..so..so..truly amazing! waow!👍
This reminds me of a place that semi nomadic people would go to hide, trade or worship.
@@joanlynch5271 It could be 😜
Like your music to go with the videos!
First thing I'd haul in is cushions and pillows. Did you run into fred or barney? Very cool!
I'm sure just one of those dwellings had your name stamped on it....
What a place to call home....past and present.....a true escape from it all sanctuary....
cool looks lieve-able as long as u got wifi and a mini-fridge!
Very interesting civilization!, I want to learn more-off to google I go*** Thanks Gabriel*
That last one looked like maybe "royalty" dwelling. You were able to view over the whole land of caves! Very, very awesome. I wonder what/how the bathroom was utilized if there was a designated room/area. How were all these cave dwellers able to obtain water for so many people. I would really like to learn more about these people who lived their whole life here.
I wonder those holes is where they kept their chickens or pigeons ?
Yes I would live here
Hello, we hope all is well?
We were stuck in Malta due to our flights being canceled
we are sorry we have not connected to you for a while
we hope you can understand
we are now playing catch up lol
Thank you for sharing this with us
we do love to see this wonderful world through multiple lenses
we are also a travel channel so we understand just what its like when you see something for the very 1st time
Thanks for taking us along with you
anyway stay safe my friend
Love and Light Sarah and Glenn
That view @26:13 is simply WOW !!!
Next time you are back in the US check out Tent Rocks Near Santa Fe. Very similar area.
I think if I ever become homeless, I'm finding myself a cave.
Hello
@@angelinajolie7978 everyone report Angelina Jolie
Really 🙄
What if I am the real Angelina Jolie
@@angelinajolie7978 You've never made a good film. Hence the report.
Sandals for climbing....must have good grip :)
What if you got lost there? You'd be wandering for days.
Epic! I envy you. Question, are you considering of doing live streams?
Hello
@@angelinajolie7978 Hi!
How are you doing?
@@angelinajolie7978 Doing fine, thanks for asking. How are you doing yourself?
I am doing great,nice to meet you
17:50 Dungeons & Dragons. An Orc pops out to confront you. You use your magic smart tablet of infinity to summon an Uber.
Hello
I miss my second home in Turkey
Hi Gabriel, I'm pretty sure the small carved out shelves were for chickens., they used to harvest the eggs.
Atb David 👍
They had to have been raising birds there. For meat, feathers, ceremonies, and fertilizer. Maybe black powder as well. I think it was a town dedicated to raising birds. Like the rock dove.
Yes, apparently that's what all the little shelves in the rocks were for, pigeons.
Out of curiosity, have you seen many snakes around the area there? If you haven’t been before, I’m sure you would love exploring Matera in Italy too 👌
I've never seen a snake in Turkey. Matera looks amazing.
Seems to be an exterrestrial location! Similar place but of course not that huge is the Bandslier National Monument in New Mexico! 🤗👍
Mr Gabriel.. I love your vlog.And always following you whenever you upload the video.I don't want and never skip the advertising to help you explore more place.
May i know what camera do you use and mic do you use during you explore?. Thank you sir
Thanks a lot, I appreciate it. I film with a DJI Osmo Action and use the mic in the camera, no external mic.
You should invest in a backpack drone for places like this. So you can investigate everything from one area and see it all.
Hi
All throughout there is not a bird, lizard, spider, or snake. Just a cat, a dog or two, along with a humane or three. Strange and what about a source for water?
Nice hiking boots
this is really great, but you should update your camera and upload in 4K that would be even better!
@17:31 Pigeon loft, #Maybe they #Farmed #Pigeons for #Food
Bro I got to know about you from Jesse you commented their
When you make people believe in something then they will do amazing things. Faith is a very strong tool and shelter is a very important necesscity for survival and capadoccia has soft rocks which can prevent looters and rapist getting inside.
I still don't see how large numbers of people could live there permanently. There's very little firewood available. They could use cow dung but there's not enough grass to sustain a herd of cattle. Where did they get food from? No rivers for fish, very poor soil for growing crops or fruit trees. And no fresh water source other than rainwater. Not much use a place of safety if there are no available natural resources. You'd have to be desperate to eek out a living there. Unless perhaps they relied upon birds and bird eggs to survive.
Mate, here we are talking about the period of 4000 years ago...vegetation, animals, people, customs were on a different scales than today...use your imagination ! Cheers
All great questions. There are answers but the answers might be hidden. Somehow they apparently survived.
Do you understand that some hundreads or thousands of years ago the climet has been different, and the environment has been lush agricultural area.
