Uçhisar Castle
Uçhisar Castle is a tall outcrop of volcanic tuff at the top of Uçhisar village, the highest point in the Göreme area, hollowed out over centuries into rooms, cisterns, storerooms and tunnels used as a refuge. Steps and paths lead up through the rock to a summit terrace with views over Pigeon Valley, Göreme and Mount Erciyes.
