General İnformation About Cappadocia Tour from Alanya

Cappadocia Tour from Alanya 2

Before you go on cultural trips, researching the places you will see and making the right descriptions always make you enjoy more.

We have compiled for you the places included in the Alanya to Cappadocia Tour program and the places you will visit and see in the Cappadocia region.

History of Cappadocia

Cappadocia was formed by the lava eruption of Erciyes Mountain, Güllüdağ and Hasan Mountain. It took millions of years to form. Over time, lava and ashes turned into tuffs. Then, it took its present appearance with the erosion of flood, rain water and wind.

Cappadocia, which has great historical importance, has hosted many civilizations. Since it is located on the Silk Road route, it has also been a bridge between countries in terms of trade and social. The first written source is found in the Hittite period. Later, it came under the rule of Persians, Romans, Seljuks and Ottomans, respectively. During the Persians, it was named Cappadocia, which means "Land of Beautiful Horses". It lived in its most trouble-free state during the Ottoman period. With the Treaty of Lausanne, the Christians migrated from here.

If you have more time to visit Cappadocia, you can also join the 3 day Cappadocia tour from Alanya program.

Places to Visit on Cappadocia Tour from Alanya

Cappadocia covers a region spread primarily to Nevşehir, Kırşehir, Niğde, Aksaray and Kayseri provinces. Avanos consists of six regions: Çavuşin, Ürgüp, Göreme, Uçhisar and Ortahisar. Now, let's give you detailed information about the places you should visit and see in Cappadocia.

Places to Visit in Avanos
Avanos

Although it is known by many different names in history, it is possible to see names such as Venassa, Evranos, Zuwinasa or Ouenasa on the signs.

Below, we have listed the places to visit in Avanosta during your Alanya to Cappadocia tour.

Stone bridge
Avanos Stone bridge

The historical stone bridge that greets you when you enter Avanos and has survived to the present day without any wear. Its construction started in 1898 with the contributions of Kurena Arif Bey from Avanos, and it started service in 1900. It was built on 11 feet.

Wooden Bridge(Swinging Bridge)
Avanos Wooden Bridge

It was built in 1973. It is 180 m long. It allows you to visit both sides of the Kızılırmak River.

Hair Museum
Avanos Hair Museum

It is one of the museums that we recommend you to listen to when you go to its legend. So much so that it ranks 6th out of the 15 most interesting museums in the world. It entered the Guinness Book of Records. There are more than 16 thousand strands of hair in the museum. It occupies a small part of the Chez Galip Workshop.

In 1979, a French woman tourist came to Galip Körükçü's pottery workshop and in time, an emotional rapprochement began between them. The French woman stays for 3 months and has to go back to her country. She wants to leave a memory of herself in order not to be forgotten. She leaves a lock of her hair. The master hangs the hair on the wall. Later, every woman who hears the story, visits, is affected, wants to make a wish leaves a lock of hair. Years later, the hair becomes full. It is said that the French woman came back but could not find her hair. According to some, hair is kept in a special place.

A lottery is held for those who want to come back to Cappadocia twice a year. Visitors to the museum are asked to write their information on paper and leave a lock of hair. Once the draw is done, the winners are invited to a one-week vacation and their expenses paid.

Also, our guests from Alanya will have the chance to make pottery with mud in a pottery workshop in Cappadocia. This event is only valid for a 2 day tour from Alanya to Cappadocia.

Tahsin Ağa Public Library was previously located on Temenni Hill and you can still find books. This library has a beautiful story. Tahsin Ağa is actually a gardener. He was arranging and beautifying the garden so much that Sultan Abdülmecid commissioned him to organize his own library as well. Tahsin Ağa saves the excess books for himself and sends them to his hometown Ürgüp and ensures that a library is established there.

So who is the Donkey Librarian working at Tahsin Ağa Public Library?

When Mustafa Güzelgöz, a Vefa sports goalkeeper, comes to his hometown, he decides to stay in Ürgüp to teach football to young people with the encouragement of the district governor.
