Cappadocia:
A Storybook Beginning
After 昀氀ying from
Melbourne to Istanbul,
we continued to
Cappadocia for the 昀椀rst
two nights of our trip.
Few places feel quite
as otherworldly
as Cappadocia.
Its distinctive rock
formations, cave
dwellings and sweeping
valleys create a
landscape that seems
almost too extraordinary
to be real. Staying in a
cave hotel added to the
experience, giving us an
authentic taste of the
region’s character and
history.
Of course, Cappadocia
is famous for its hot air
balloons. Watching the
colourful balloons rise
above the valleys in the
early morning was every
bit as magical as the
photographs suggest.
We stayed at:
Sultan Cave Suites
Our rating: 4/5 stars
The accommodation was
full of charm, and the
service was excellent.
It was a wonderful
introduction to Türkiye
and set the tone for the
adventure ahead.
