Derinkuyu, the city hidden beneath the ground

#JulyTravelSupport Below the tranquil grounds of the Cappadocia plains lies the secret city of Derinkuyu, 60 meters deep and eight stories high. Thousands of years ago, people fled persecution and descended here, building churches, kitchens, and even wine cellars. Traces of those who chose to live in silence, closing stone doors, remain in every dark passage. The further you descend the stairs, the more awe-inspiring the experience becomes. #TurkiyeTravel #Turkiye
