Tour en globo aerostático sobre las chimeneas de hadas de Capadocia
Cappadocia, the world's best place for a hot air balloon tour, is located in Central Anatolia. The region has its own historical and cultural heritage. During our trip to Cappadocia, we visited many cities that were once inhabited by Christians who had fled from Roman persecution during the 4th century AD. These underground cities are called "Cappadocian Cave Churches".
Los hermosos valles de Capadocia, en Anatolia Central, se sitúan entre 1050 y 1300 metros sobre el nivel del mar.
You will find the beautiful valleys of Cappadocia in Central Anatolia, which vary from 1050 to 1300 meters above sea level. The weather is temperate with hot summers and somewhat mild winters. There are around 250 people living in the area, many of them farmers or shepherds who still use their traditional methods for harvesting wheat and barley by hand in order to keep their identity as an indigenous community. The landscape is mostly made up of soft hills, but there are also some flat areas where you can see old abandoned houses called "cave dwellings", carved into rocks by people thousands of years ago. The local fauna includes foxes and jackals that live in holes that were once inhabited by humans as well as wild boars that roam freely through these ancient lands

Es una antigua región de Anatolia central, conocida sobre todo por sus inusuales formaciones geológicas llamadas chimeneas de hadas y por sus ciudades subterráneas. La región también alberga numerosas iglesias, monasterios y viviendas excavadas en la roca blanda de las laderas por los primeros cristianos para esconderse de la persecución durante el Imperio romano.

Se puede observar que el paisaje de Capadocia, con la ayuda de la Madre Naturaleza, se ha formado a través de numerosas erupciones.
Cappadocia is a region in central Turkey where one can observe that the landscape of Cappadocia with the help of Mother Nature has been created through many eruptions. Volcanic eruptions, erosion caused by wind, rain and soil erosion as well as sedimentation have changed this unique landscape into what we see today. Wind erosion is a weathering process that occurs when particles within an air flow collide with solid surfaces like rocks or soil particles at high speeds causing them to erode away gradually over time if there are no barriers present that would prevent this from happening in certain areas such as sand dunes - which will build up but eventually be blown away too!
Rainwater can also cause erosion due to its ability to wash away loose material such as sand grains while ice melts during warm seasons leaving behind exposed bedrock underneath so there will always be some type of natural forces at play which shape any given environment according to their own criteria when left alone long enough without interference from humans or other living creatures (except maybe insects!).
Inicialmente, los hititas llamaron a la región "Katpatuka", que significa "la tierra de los hermosos caballos".

En las inscripciones persa-arameas, el nombre "Katpatuka" aparecía como "Kapudukaya".
En las inscripciones persas-arameas, el nombre "Katpatuka" se introdujo como "Kapudukaya". La palabra capadocio deriva de la palabra griega Kappadokia, que significa “Tierra de los Hermosos Caballos”.
Se cree que el nombre proviene de una leyenda sobre un hombre llamado Kappadokos que vivió aquí y tuvo dos hijas con alas. Solían volar por los alrededores y cantar maravillosamente como ángeles. En algunas versiones de esta leyenda eran hadas o espíritus que ayudaban a los necesitados; otras versiones dicen que eran brujas que traían enfermedad y muerte a quienes las rodeaban.

Algunos geógrafos creen que "Capadocia" deriva de "la tierra sobre la tierra", mientras que otros creen que deriva de "la tierra más allá de los montes Tauro".
Some geographers believe that “Kapadokya” is derived from “the land above earth”, while others believe that it is derived from “the land beyond the Taurus Mountains”. During the first centuries AD, this area was ruled by the Hittite Empire. In 676 BC, Kapadokya was conquered by the Lydian king Sadyattes. Later on, after Alexander III's conquest of Asia Minor and Pamphylia in 334 BC, Cappadocia became part of Europe's Hellenistic empire. In 42 BC, Herodotus stated that all horses born in this region were trained at birth to move backwards to make use of a type of reverse gear when moving uphill on hillsides with an incline steeper than 30 degrees (i.e., a standard gradient for trolley cars). The claim has been dismissed by modern researchers as false because no such evidence exists; however some still think that it may be possible based on anecdotal evidence from travelers who have visited this region's villages--which often overlooked such attempts due to their lacklustre nature compared with other more interesting sights found elsewhere throughout Turkey's Anatolian region."
Los primeros cristianos que llegaron a Capadocia descubrieron que había montañas volcánicas y rocas que les ofrecían una gran protección frente a sus enemigos.
The first Christians who arrived in Cappadocia found out that there were volcanic mountains and rocks providing great protection against their enemies. They occupied these areas, while they were being persecuted by the Romans. These Christians were forced to live in caves because they had no other place to go, but they survived by eating wild plants and animals. These Christians made their homes underground so that their enemies could not find them easily. There are many underground cities in Cappadocia today; some of them have been destroyed but others are still standing strong after thousands of years!
Comenzaron a excavar ciudades subterráneas y a esconderse para salvarse.
The underground cities were used for many purposes. They were built to protect the people from their enemies, as well as churches and storage areas. These subterranean structures served as homes for the people living there, but they also had other uses too. Some people would use them to hide when there was danger outside of their city and others would stay in them while they were sleeping or resting during the day.
