The heart of Cappadocia is bounded by the famous triangle connecting Avanos, Uçhisar and Ürgüp. The most incredible landscapes are concentrated there. The hotel offer is very developed and the points of interest of the region are easily accessible. Located 275 km south of Ankara and 223 km north of Konya, the largest city in central Cappadocia is not known for its charm. The prefecture of the region, famous for its fortress, it is mostly a hub for buses from surrounding villages and the country's major cities. Nevşehir's economy is dependent on agriculture and tourism. The city has witnessed the passage of many successive civilizations. Its history dates back to prehistoric times, when the Hittites established a settlement in the 8th century BC on the slopes of Mount Kahwagi. The city of Nevşehir was dominated by the Assyrians and later by the Medes and Persians during various periods of history. The city plays an important role in the history of Christianity: the cellars of Nevşehir were built to protect and hide Christians from the pagan persecution of the Roman Empire. You can also take a hot air balloon ride over the strange rock formations that date back more than 60 million years. The tourist office is located in Hastane Önü, Atatürk Bulvarı.
