Göreme
Göreme is the village inside the national park: cave hotels, rock churches and balloon launches at dawn. The Open-Air Museum is the obvious stop, but the real pleasure is walking the valleys, Pigeon, Love, Rose and Red, with a water bottle and no fixed schedule. Stay two nights if you can; one morning will probably be cancelled for wind.
Best time to visit: April to June and September to October; balloons fly at dawn.
Nevşehir
Nevşehir is the gateway to Cappadocia, where volcanic tuff has been carved into churches, homes and underground cities. Hot-air balloons, Göreme, Uçhisar and the valleys around Ürgüp make it one of Türkiye's most recognizable landscapes.
