Troglodytes at Home Without the metal stairway it'd be easy to believe I had stumbled upon the house of a Hobbit. But no, this is just a normal Cappadocian cave dwelling in the town of Ürgüp not far from the famous Göreme Open-Air Museum. If you look closely, you'll see that it has electricity, phone, and even TV--not bad for a 2000-year-old lifestyle choice. Should you feel the urge to "go troglodyte" (ie, become a cave-dweller), Ürgüp and some other Cappadocian towns (such as Göreme) have inns and hotels where you can stay in cave-rooms. |
