Cappadocia is an ancient region in central Anatolia, Turkey. The sparse landscape is higlighted with red sandstone and salt deposits.

 

 

Cappadocia is well-connected to the rest of Turkey via bus, train and air. However, the trains, which run from Ankara and Istanbul to Nigde and Kayseri, are slow and uncomfortable. Turkish Airlines (THY), Onur Air, Pegasus, Atlas Jet and Sun Express operate daily flights from Istanbul to Kayseri throughout the day as well as once a day to Nevsehir.

 

Overnight buses run between Antalya, Istanbul, Ankara and Nevsehir, From Nevsehir, you continue to your Cappadocian town by shuttle minibus (servis). You might also decide to take a bus to Konya, see the sights there, spend the night, and continue to your destination the next day.
