Cappadocia which is unique in the world and is a miraculous nature
wonder is the common name of the field covered by the provinces of
Aksaray, Nevsehir, Nigde, Kayseri and Kirsehir in the Central
Anatolian region.
In the upper Myosen period in the Cappadocia region as a result of
the vulcanic eruptions occurred in Erciyes, Hasandag and Gulludag, in
the region was formed a large tableland from the vulcanic tufas and
together with the erosion of the Kizilirmak river and wind over ten
thausands of years there appeared the chimney rocks which are a wonder
of the nature. In the old Bronze Age the Cappadocia which was the
population zone of the Assyrian civilization later has hosted the
Hittite, Frig, Pers, Byzantine, Seljuk and Ottoman civilizations. The
first Christians escaped from the persecution of the Roman Empire in
the 2nd century B.C. came to the Cappadocia over the Antakya and
Kayseri and they have settled here. The first Christians finding the
underground cities from Cappadocia have been hidden in these
underground cities which gates were made in such way in which they
couldn't be easily observed and they have escaped from the persecution
of the Roman soldiers. Due that they had live in the underground
cities for long duration without being able to go out they have
developed these underground cities by making provisions rooms,
ventilation chimneys, wine production places, churches, abbeys, water
wells, toilets and meeting rooms.
