Göreme

Was just having lunch at the favorite Pide place around the corner from us and rather than take the Pide to go, we decided to sit down and eat it there. Much better - then it is piping hot - fresh out of the oven. And they gave us tea while we waited for them to bake the Pide.

Most people in fact, just go to the place to pick up a Pide and take it with them. But if you venture inside and sit down to eat, you'll see the rather crazy model they have built up near the ceiling of the place in Turkey called Göreme.

I haven't been there yet, but have seen photos from friends who have been there. It is this city that has been built into natural volcanic rock formations.

It was an ancient Christian hideout - which can be seen by the elaborate churches built inside the mountains....


I think this place is definitely worth a visit. I wonder how cold it is in Turkey this time of year.
