Uçhisar Castle
Climb Cappadocia's prominent rock citadel for a broad view of the surrounding valleys and town. The carved passages and elevated setting make it a compact alternative to a longer valley walk.
Why go
Uçhisar works especially well when you want to understand Cappadocia's landscape from above. The ascent passes through the carved rock before opening onto a panorama of valleys, villages and volcanic formations. Pair it with a ground-level walk elsewhere for two different views of the same terrain.
