My vacation in Turkey


My dear chess friends! 

Cappadocia is a wonderful and special place. There are no all-inclusive hotels, but there is certainly a mystery! 




During my vacation I was especially impressed by the stony cliffs, where people used to live ages ago. Who were these people? It is unclear. 


Some christians were hiding there for some time, but the underground city was built long before they came. And people who lived there never went outside! This city reached 20 floors into depth (maybe even more). 





There are approximately 200 underground cities like that in Turkey. We have visited one of the smallest ones, still not totally dug out. 






We also watched the beautiful hot air balloons, of course.

A great spot for playing chess, don't you think?
