The Best Time to Visit
Cappadocia is mounted on a high plateau, which experiences hot and dry summers. In the winter, it’s chillingly cold and sometimes the region gets treated to snowfall.
However, the best time to visit is arguably as soon as possible. This UNESCO World Heritage site is under threat; ironically, from the very forces of nature that created it. Erosion is threatening the current state of Goreme and Cappadocia, although extensive efforts are being channelled to preserve the wonders of the region.
So a trip to this amazing park is a must before construction works are underway. What I would give to float lazily across the majestic plains of fairy chimneys and cones, untouched by modern development!
