Next stop is the Zelve Valley where the movie Ghost Rider 2 was filmed. Once there, you will feel you are in the movie set yourself! Zelve Valley is where the oldest and the longest settlements took place in the region. It is also known as the place Christianity started to spread. Many monasteries, churches and old settlements can be found in Zelve.
Lunch is at a local restaurant.
We will then go to the Uchisar Castle where L'empire des Loups was filmed. Being the highest point of the region, Uchisar Castle overlooks the Hasan and Argeus; today's inactive volcanic mountains, the originator of the unique shapes of Cappadocia. Final stop is the Selimiye Monastery where the-second-highest-grossing movie of all time Star Wars was filmed. One of the oldest settlements in history, Selimiye Monastery has footprints of many civilizations as the Romans, Seljuks, Hittites, Persian, Byzantines and the Ottomans. Once home to the Orthodox communities, people that lived here obeyed the rules from the cathedral without questions. This truly was their sacred place.
