Kaymaklõ Underground City, Cappadocia Overview

Located in Goreme, the Kaymakli Underground City is the widest and one of the largest of the 36 underground cities in Cappadocia. It was built during the Hittite era to act as a safe haven during raids and attacks. There are 8 floors full of cellars, storage spaces, stables, and wineries. Only 4 floors are open to the public, and most of the things of interest are on the 3rd floor.

The underground city was brilliantly planned. There is also a ventilation shaft which goes through the entire settlement. There are houses and storage places with slabs to keep objects. Archaeologists believed that more than 3000 people resided in the Kaymakli Underground City.
