We are situated in the geography where religions
were born, developed and spread. We sit astride
the migration routes. Turkey is almost smack in
the center of the ancient world. Consequently Anatolia
has unique and unparalleled stories to tell.
A 2000-YEAR-OLD MYSTERY
For 300 years, a people in Anatolia descended to
underground cities every time they spotted the enemy;
those cities constitute the largest underground
habitation ever built by man. As for the enemy,
from afar he saw a living city with smoking chimneys.
But when he reached it, although he could never
unravel the mystery, could never understand where
so many people had disappeared, all he found was
an abandoned city!
Connected by passages several kilometers long, these
cities were located in Cappadocia, so familiar to
all of us today.
