Cappadocia i

Cappadocia and its otherworldly landscape - it's not right we were here for only two days. It is certainly the most ancient-feeling place I have been.

No photos permitted inside the Churches of Göreme! Tsk, tsk. But the Mister couldn't help himself. These red ochre frescoes of the Church of St. Barbara stand out for their almost primitive simplicity and echo the church's exterior. The rest of the churches overwhelm - the spaces brim with vibrantly coloured, highly detailed imagery and beg to be reflected upon. Sadly, one must mentally capture as much as possible while herded through - it's a very popular tourist destination. Our stay was brief so we bought a book to tell us what we saw after the fact.
