In the small town of Goreme, a morning belongs to a hot air balloon.

The town of Goreme in Cappadocia. It was just dawn and the whole town was bustling with activity. It turned out that a huge group of hot air balloons had begun to rise slowly. Standing in the gondola of a hot air balloon slowly rising into the sky, watching the colorful hot air balloons flying out of the miraculous karst landforms, you will feel a magical feeling. With the first rays of sunrise, the small town of Goreme turns into a fairy tale world. Time flies so fast, and I still have so much fun getting off the hot air balloon. Next, use your feet to feel this land. The Gröme Valley and its surrounding areas are dominated by rocky hills of different shapes. Thousands of caves were dug on these rock faces, most of which were built by Christians who absconded from the Roman Empire. There are beautiful hangings on the tree next to the observation deck, and there are many local souvenirs that look like eyes. My friends said it was a bit strange, haha. When you come to the underground city, you can see cave-like villages and underground towns, and even very advanced ventilation methods. The history can be traced back to 3,000 years ago. Human wisdom is infinite. Forgot to mention, the wonderful Cappadocia Gramme was also the filming location for the first part of "Star Wars" and was once called "the most moon-like place on Earth." Standing at the entrance of the mound, dreaming of putting on armor and holding a laser sword to kill everywhere, I am also a warrior! Lunch is a special Turkish meal in Cappadocia, bread, vegetable salad, chicken rice or meatloaf rice. Instead of rice, it should be local corn crops. It tastes good. There is also dessert after the meal, which is super sweet, haha. After eating and drinking, we went to the "Uhlage" Canyon, a mysterious hiking route in Cappadocia. This is a desolate and mysterious world, because it is not easy to find it. The huge rocks on both sides of the canyon stood thick and majestic for an unknown period of time, and a small river of melted snow mountains flowed in the canyon. After walking down more than 300 steps to the bottom of the canyon, the canyon is full of life, and the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers are in sharp contrast to the ones above. Occasionally, you can see caves on the cliff. It is said that hermits lived here more than a thousand years ago. On the way, we encountered a floating tent teahouse, a huge turkey, and a grandma spreading pancakes. I just had limited time, but I really wanted to enjoy it here. There is never enough time to have fun. I didn’t stay to experience the cave hotel. Let’s leave some regrets and find a reason for next time. We took a night flight with Turkish Airlines to Istanbul.
