The Goreme Tarihi Milli Parki or Goreme National Historical Park is like an open air natural museum blessed with rock formations like “fair chimney”, Byzantine art and underground towns. Delved into rich history and stunning nature, the Goreme National Park in Central Anatolia features plateau ovals with high hills, river valleys, alluvial creeks, steep slopes and sparse vegetation. Among the highlights of the landscape are the Hasan Dagin and Erciyes volcanic cones and the eroded basalt tuff beds. Far from the madding crowd of the main town, the Goreme Tarihi Milli ParkI is a secluded zen-spot for those seeking tranquillity. There are intricate murals decorating the chapels, monasteries, warehouses, wineries and monks cells.
