Thanks for watching! I'm launching a new travel vlog every week, so stay tuned. Travel Lord On Location is a new channel, so please SUBSCRIBE and turn on NOTIFICATIONS if you enjoy my content and want to see my travel adventures.
About this Cappadocia vlog:
In this episode, I headed out to Göreme, which is a city in Nevşehir, which is a province in Cappadocia, which is a region of Türkiye. While I didn’t get to see any hot air balloons, my main reason for going was to see the ancient underground cities of Cappadocia. True Turkish landmarks!
After hiking around and exploring the sights of the caves, churches and rooms carved into the fairy chimneys, I went out to Kaymaklı, the site of Kaymaklı underground city. These cities are subterranean wonders from the early Christians, and well worth the trip. I’d encourage you to check out these hidden cities if you have the chance! If you like this kind of historical exploration, I’ve got a lot more on the way, too!
About Nevşehir tourism:
Nevşehir, a captivating city in Turkey's Central Anatolia region, is renowned for its rich historical tapestry and stunning landscapes. It serves as the gateway to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Cappadocia, famous for its fairy-tale scenery, unique rock formations, and ancient cave dwellings. Tourists are drawn to the remarkable underground cities like Derinkuyu and Kaymaklı, which offer a glimpse into early Christian history and ingenious ancient engineering. Above ground, the region is dotted with iconic “fairy chimneys,” towering spires of rock, and enchanting valleys like Ihlara, ideal for hiking and photography.
Hot air ballooning is a must-do in Nevşehir, providing unparalleled views of the lunar-like landscape at sunrise. The Göreme Open-Air Museum, a complex of medieval cave churches adorned with frescoes, is another highlight. Visitors also enjoy local handicrafts, especially pottery and carpets, and savoring traditional Turkish cuisine. Nevşehir, blending its historical heritage with natural wonders, offers a truly unique travel experience, enchanting visitors with its otherworldly beauty and rich cultural legacy.
About Cappadocia’s history:
Cappadocia, a historical region in central Turkey, is a testament to both nature's artistry and human resilience. Its history, spanning several millennia, is as intricate as its famous rock formations. The earliest recorded inhabitants, the Hittites, settled here around 1800 BCE. Over centuries, this region witnessed a mosaic of cultures, including Persians, early Christians, and Byzantines.
The unique geological formations of Cappadocia, created by volcanic eruptions followed by erosion, provided an ideal canvas for human habitation. The soft rock, easily carved, led to the creation of underground cities like Derinkuyu and Kaymaklı, which offered refuge and secrecy, particularly for early Christians during Roman persecutions. These cities, complete with ventilation shafts, chapels, and communal rooms, are engineering marvels.
Over time, Cappadocia became a blend of natural wonder and cultural heritage. It's not just the physical beauty but the layers of history embedded in its caves and cliffs that enchant visitors, making it a unique chronicle of human adaptation and creativity.

When I got the notification, I immediately came to watch.
Wow! I appreciate it!
@@TravelLordOnLoc Nevşehir very weird city but very good
@@mychannel8110 I’m glad I got to see it!
@@TravelLordOnLoc ❤️
My friend, you have prepared a very nice video, I appreciate you. You also promote the historical and touristic places of Turkey. You have won a place in our hearts with your videos celebrating the 100th anniversary of our republic and commemorating Atatürk on 10 November. I appreciate and respect you, thank you
Thank you very much! I’m not done yet though!
I had no idea how beautiful this country is! Nice job again!!!
Thank you very much!
Wow! What an Incredible, outstanding video sir. Cappadocia looks absolutely outstanding, There is truly so much to Türkiye that I haven't seen! I also remember how a dog when i went to an island of the bosphorous straight also followed me and I even named it and gave it food. I also bought a poncho from a man from Ecuador who travelled as a merchant when I was in the UK recently. This ancient city is almost unimaginable in the way it operates and was concisely constructed as it even still stands proudly today. It is almost like something of a fantasy novel that most travellers rarely pass by, almost making it like a hidden gem to the outside world. I cant wait to see the next video for what you have in Türkiye! Stay safe! Greetings from Trinidad
Appreciate it, as always!
You should taste Cappadocian Food Amazing🥵
@@TravelLordOnLocmy dream country😢😢😢
I appreciate the calm and chill vibe in your videos. Followed sir!
Great to hear!
That's it! 🇹🇷🇹🇷The Department of Tourism needs to put you on the payroll 😂 Thank you again TLOL Another great video. I noticed you added cool tunes too.

@@TravelLordOnLoc The center of the world is Cappadocia... those who don't believe can measure it
Thank you so much for visiting my hometown, it really made me happy! I miss my hometown so much I can't explain it. The food there is delicious, my grandmother always used to cook it. Half of my childhood was in Nevşehir and half in Istanbul.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
I really like your videos man. You have a calm and informative style.
Glad you like them! Thanks for watching!
Hatay ,Urfa ,Antep ,Amasra Ankara(Anıtkabir) Aslında 81 il ..her il bir ülke gibi,görülecek çok yer var. Hayat kısa ..yollar uzun ..Anadolu kadim ve güzel şehirlerim ..Ortadoğu insanları tarafından istila ediliyor ,kontrolsüz göç ..😔 ülkem değişiyor,arablaştırılıyor…umarım önlem alınır ve o eski güzel günlere dönebiliriz..
Gerçekten o kadar üzücü ki. Bir şeyler yapmazsak önümüzde büyük bir tehlike bizi bekliyor. 🤦♀️
Ülkemde arapları görmek istemiyorum kara adamlar etekleri yer süpüren kadınlar görüntü kirliliği 😢
Well, thanks for watching!
Another awesome video! Thank you very much!!!!
My pleasure!
Yine çok güzeldi, emeğinize sağlık...😍😍
Thank you for watching!
Cappadochia is one of the most interesting and historical region in Türkiye. There are a lot of ancient caves in which hided first Christian peoples (Ihlara valley). Every year, especially thousands of Japaness and Korean tourists visit there. In a Korean series in Netflix (Vincenzo), it was mentioned and refered Capadochia. Good travel!!!
Thanks for the info and for watching!
Those tunnels look about just the right fit for Napoleon!
Indeed!
You should visit Troya and Kaz mountains in Çanakkale. Anzac peoples love and visit there
I’ll look into it! Thanks!

You should come to Antalya soon. There are amazing places out there!
Nice job you fairy chimney!! Travel buddy strikes again😊
I appreciate your support!
Thanks for your efforts❤
Thank you!
i have been there 20 years ago. that underground city was goosebumping. one cool thing i still remember is that barns.. those people fed their sheeps underground. what a crazy life!
so we got down 3 floors underground, there were 7 floors in total but not allowed.
there was a completely natural ventilation system and we could hear the sound of the river flowing somewhere below. Now you can go and watch "Silo" lol
Yeah, it was definitely a great experience! Crazy to think that a while city of people could live down there
Kapadokya is one of the most Popular City in Türkiye
It was great! I’m glad I went!
Next time, if you have the opportunity, you should visit Cappadocia in spring 🎈 I really love your vlogs, thank you for sharing :)
I hope I can! I want to get in the balloons
Seni yeni keşfettim artık bir numaralı takipçinim
İyi gezmeler ❤❤
I appreciate it! I’ve got a lot of videos to edit!
İzlemek için bekliyoruz o halde 🎉
@@arzunepenthe7742 ok! I will hurry! Hahaha
Hello it’s really good video, good places and good foods! 🧿🧿🧿Waiting for your next video, which city ❓Rize, Antalya, İzmir or Şanlıurfa❓
I shot Izmir already. Just got back from Bursa. Planning to go to Sanliurfa and Mardin next week and maybe Bodrum and Antalya after that… but I think the next video will be from Albania. I shot it months ago in September and still haven’t put it out yet
@@TravelLordOnLoc ok thanks for information☺
Bro at this rate, l predict you will grab your residency and settle in Turkey 😂
Hahahaha well the tourist visa I have allows me to stay until mid-January this time. I’ll try to see as much as I can. Heading to Sanliurfa and Mardin next! (Although I already have other videos here that I haven’t posted yet)
@@TravelLordOnLocWhy you don't going to Hatay ?
Also you can going to Alexanderia
Please visit Hatay too. You'll find the best food there. Also there is one of the oldest Church in the world called Saint Pierre.
Thanks! I’ll look into it!
Hatay was destroyed by an earthquake last year. :( Nothing is the same anymore. It has now turned into a ghost town. 50,000 people died in the earthquake.
Thanks
Thank you!
God job man😉
I appreciate it!
İzmire git. Kemeraltında Kokoreç / söğüş / midye / boyoz / doyuran / torpil / şambali / halep tatlısı / sakızlı kazandibi deneyebilirsin. (Kesinlikle hepsini denemelisin) Şirince ve efes gezilecek başlıca yerler. Şirinceninde şarapları ünlü.
I shot in Izmir and Ephesus! Very nice places!
Nice video
Thank you!
güzel ülkem be :)
Thanks for watching!
Happy christmas🎉🌲🍻🏕
Thanks! I hope you’re enjoying the holidays too!
@@TravelLordOnLoc Yes of course,thank you.🙏
Tam bir Belgesel sunum olmuş. Tarihi ve görseli ile teşekkür ederim. ❤
Thank you for watching!
new video +rep ♥
Thanks for watching!
Besides being one of the most fascinated places I have ever been Not every morning hot air balloons happen in Cappadocia due to weather (wind) conditions.
Yeah, the hot air balloons were canceled all of the days I was there due to weather. But I still had a great time!
@@TravelLordOnLocI hear you. Same thing happened to me in middle of August 😅 Bummer.
@@TheTraWELLer Oh, I thought it was mostly because I went so late in the year.
@@TravelLordOnLoc I guess there is no perfect time to visit Cappadocia for hot air balloons hahaha just go anytime and enjoy lol
I really enjoyed your video! But i am curious if you also visited the Ihlara Valley in Cappadocia and took a pottery class which is another popular thing to do there. 😊
I didn’t take a pottery class because I didn’t have enough time. But if I get back there in the summer I will try it and go in a hot air balloon!
@@TravelLordOnLoc Fantastic! Hopefully you will. 🤞
🇹🇷🌏👍💯🚀
Thank you!
👍
Always appreciate the thumbs up!
🇹🇷👍
Thank you!
Nisan ayında yine git her mevsim başka güzel
I may not be able to because of my tourist vids but I’d like to check it out when the weather is better
Seni takip ediyor çünkü seni sevmiş olmalı.Korumak için yanında ❤
I enjoyed the company!
Go to Denizli
I’ll check it out and see if I have enough time left on my visa!
Cats will follow you through around here & show you real homeland within Turkish borders😅 trust them😜
The cats were amazing! Hahaha
Wherever you go in Eskişehir, people disappear. You cannot go to Kuşunlu Mosque and take a video. A car is coming from the railway. You miss the fireworks show in Istanbul and stay in Tarlabaşı, thinking it is the most beautiful place. You cannot see a single balloon in this place where hundreds of balloons fly every day. I must subscribe to your channel!
Hahahaha! Maybe my luck will change! I’ve got some good ones coming up!
I would like to address the Ministry of Tourism here. I want the heaviest penalties to be given to those who pollute the environment and the areas where the works are located. The people there should not allow those who pollute the environment. The last time I went to Göreme, I couldn't find a decent place to eat. The people have lost their hospitality and money has become an asset.
I think it is a problem everywhere. I thought Goreme was nice to visit!
Araplardan değil Romalılardan saklanıyorlardı
Yes but later they also hid from the Arabs as well during Arab-Byzantine wars. Maybe I should’ve explained it more!
Yes. I told you the purpose of it.Have a nice trip.
biraz türkçe konuşan iyi olur saygılar
I’ll do my best!
You should come to Antalya soon. There are amazing places out there!
I’ll be there next week! What do you recommend?
@@TravelLordOnLoc You can go to many places such as Kurşunlu Waterfall, Düden Waterfall, Karain Cave, Kaleiçi, Hadrian's Gate,Antalya Museum.
@@edittv4295 Thanks! I'll look into it!
@@TravelLordOnLoc Have a good journey!
