Göreme is a touristic village in the province Nevşehir, in central Anatolia, Türkiye.
Göreme je očarljiva destinacija v Kapadokiji, znana po svojih edinstvenih geoloških formacijah in bogati kulturni zgodovini. Tukaj je nekaj sorodnih tem, ki bi vas lahko zanimale:
- Göreme National Park: A UNESCO World Heritage site famous for its fairy chimneys, ancient rock-cut churches, and stunning landscapes.
- Göreme History: Offers insights into the historical significance of the area, including its role in early Christianity and the civilizations that have inhabited it.
- Göreme Activities: Includes a variety of activities such as hot air ballooning, hiking, and exploring the underground cities.
With a spectacular landscape shaped entirely by erosion, the Göreme Valley and its surroundings are home to rock-hewn sanctuaries, a unique testament to post-iconoclastic Byzantine art. There are also dwellings, settlement villages and underground cities, remnants of traditional human habitats dating back to the 4th century.
Kapadokija
Nahaja se na osrednji anatolski planoti v vulkanski pokrajini, ki jo je erozija oblikovala v zaporedje gorskih grebenov, dolin in vrhov, znanih kot »pravljični dimniki«. Narodni park Göreme in skalne znamenitosti Kapadokije pokrivajo območje med mesti Nevşehir, Ürgüp in Avanos, znamenitosti Karain, Karlık, Yeşilöz, Soğanlı ter podzemna mesta Kaymaklı in Derinkuyu.
Geološki in etnološki pregled
Območje na jugu in vzhodu omejujejo verige ugaslih vulkanov z Erciyes Dağ (3916 m) na eni strani in Hasan Dağ (3253 m) na drugi. Gostota skalnih celic, cerkva, jamskih vasi in podzemnih mest v skalnih formacijah ga uvršča med najbolj impresivne in največje jamske naselbine na svetu. Čeprav je zanimiv z geološkega in etnološkega vidika, je Kapadokija zaradi neprimerljive lepote dekoracije krščanskih svetišč eden vodilnih primerov bizantinske umetnosti po ikonoklazmi.
