Travel Guide Özkonak

14 km northwest of Avanos. From 8 a. m. to 17 p. m. 5 YTL. Much less tourist, it was discovered by chance in 1972 by the landowner who is also the imam of the village. Gradually released, 2 levels are visible and open to the public. As indicated, it would extend under the village. There are some differences with the most visited underground cities such as the strange «telephone system» or larger rooms. Nestling on the slopes of the Idiş mountain, Özkonak is worth a visit. The underground city can be a pretext, because the typical village makes it possible to observe the rural life of the region. The population, increasingly accustomed to tourism, is very welcoming.
