Derinkuyu Underground City: A fascinating experience. The walk down to the seventh level is a journey in itself and a great workout for your legs. Salime Monastery: An absolutely amazing site. Its unique architecture and landscape genuinely felt like a setting from Star Wars. The Ihlara Valley offered a wonderfully calming walk along the riverbank. For food, the fish casserole was excellent, and I highly recommend the tomato dip if you don't mind a bit of spice. Finally, a special thanks to our guide, Hakan, and our driver, Bilal. They were friendly, resourceful and helpful, truly deserve a 5-star rating.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
