Kaymakli Underground City

Cappadocia is well known for its underground cities, used for protection. This is one of those. Only a few if the 8 levels are excavated. Some 8,000 people could live down here for up to 6 months. Th first pic is a model of the city. The rest are various pictures of the several levels that are open.
Described as hard living. Only one person per family could go out of the cramped living quarters as the corridors were so small. We had to bend over almost horizontal to pass through. They cooked once a week, had no chimneys but lots of food storage.
None the less, it's all pretty amazing.Okumaya devam et
