The road trip towards the first stop of the day, takes approximately one hour. However, the road is full of nice views. Make yourself comfortable, and enjoy the ride to EskiGumusler Monastery. Once there, the guide is about to brief you on its history and importance. One of the most interesting highlights of this place, is that it is the best kept, and well-preserved monastery in the region. Within its premises, you will visit the church, that is beautifully decorated with frescoes. One of them, presents Virgin Mary while smiling, which is considered a rare scene.

The excursion continues to Guzelyurt (Gelveri) village, that is famous for accommodating a big percentage of Cappadocia’s Christian population, up until 1924. At the village, you will visit the Monastery Valley. The area has multiple churches, and among them is the Church of Saint Gregory, that is the oldest in the region. Feel free to ask the guide anything you need to know about the village, and the churches.
