Cappadocia is a Unesco world heritage site
located in central part of Turkey.
The region is known for it's
fantastic rock formations, rock carved
churches, troglodyte settlements and underground
cities. Cappadocia Lodge is a
bed and breakfast
located
in Uchisar,
on the heights of this region.
Having one of the highest positions
up above the area, the spot offers unique views over the valleys and
Argeus mountain in the horizon.
Cappadocia Lodge was a complex of abandoned
historical houses by the ancient rock castle of
Uchisar. In 2003 after the approval of the
ministry of culture, restorations started and
were carried out in the complex in the aim of creating a cave hotel complying with
the natural and historical texture of the
region. Having this objective in mind specialized
architects, skilled masters and workers
were employed for the restorations.
The rock castle called Tiraz, in
the giant rock formation next to the
lodge, was possibly
carved out by the Hittites, soon after the
bronze age when iron tools were widely used.
Subsequent civilizations and early
Christians must have inhabited this particular
area primarily for defense purposes.
Located at an altitude of
approximately 1250 meters, the spot
usually receives a nice
mountain breeze.
The cave rooms are designed
to reflect the traditional Cappadocia ambiance. Being in the bosom of the nature, by
the orchards of farmers, Cappadocia Lodge offers an extraordinary
panorama of the rock formations.
We at Cappadocia Lodge
are eager to get
acquainted with different folks and be friends
with them.
Come and stay with us, rest in a
charming
and friendly Cappadocia ambiance. We will
do our best to make you feel comfortable and
will be honored to host you during your
journey in this wonderful land. |
