You meet the guide at your hotel door just after breakfast and the minivan hums away from Göreme toward a landscape that seems to reject the idea of straight lines. Soft volcanic tuff rises in columns and cones; balloons drift like bright seeds above valleys that have been carved and re-carved for millennia. The day unfolds as a string of panoramas—Uçhisar’s silhouette against the sky, the improbable caps of Pasabag’s fairy chimneys, the honeycombed hollows of Zelve, and the cool, narrow corridors of an underground city where centuries of people lived and hid.
