OPEN-AIR MUSEUM OF ZELVE (ACIK HAVA MUZESI)

Zelve's open-air museum offers an incredible setting of rocky peaks and valley sides. If the place is less famous than Göreme, the setting is no less picturesque. Great walks in sight, punctuated by churches and abandoned houses. The three valleys were inhabited until 1952. Don't miss: the mosque built in the rock, the Fish Church (Balıklı Kilise), the Grape Church (Üzümlü Kilisesi) and the Deer Church (Geyikli Kilise).
