The 23rd stop in Türkiye, the Star Wars filming location in Selime.

📍Address of the attraction: 2 km south of the Selime Monastery scenic area, in the Güzelyurt/Selime area of ​​Aksaray Province, Turkey, Kayaaltı, 68500 Selime/Güzelyurt/Aksaray. 🚗 Transportation to attractions: Self-driving Starting from Nevşehir in Cappadocia, using Amap Navigation, it is about 90 kilometers away from Nevşehir, and it usually takes 1 and a half hours to drive. There are also many tour groups in Cappadocia that offer day trips to Selime Monastery, which also include visits to the Star Wars filming locations. Public transportation is not recommended. Friends who want to experience it in depth can take a bus from Nevşehir to Selime Village and then walk there. 👍️Must-see attractions: The filming location was not ultimately selected for the Star Wars feature film, but the unique terrain is definitely worth seeing. [One] Grotto Complex: Caves are carved out from the inside of the rocky mountains. Churches, colonnades, dormitories and other buildings are scattered around, forming a unique landscape. [Two] Maria Church: Follow the signs to get there. This area has not been systematically developed and is relatively primitive, suitable for tourists who like to explore. It will be introduced in the next travelogue. 🎟️Ticket related: The filming locations of Star Wars are located on the hillsides near the Selime Monastery. If you do not enter the Selime Monastery scenic area, there are also some good check-in spots. 💗Other tips: You need to climb throughout the whole process, so it is recommended to wear non-slip shoes or hiking shoes, and avoid wearing slippers, high heels and other shoes that are inconvenient for climbing.
