Now in Cappadocia, 2 days cycling from Sivas. Anatolia region is very cold already. My winter gears are still okay, but i think the point of that those don't work come soon.
カッパドキアにはSivasから2日で着いた。やっぱアナトリア高原 寒いですな~ 装備の限界が来てる感じがすごくする今日この頃でございます。
On the way, 道中。


Camping in Beautiful cold night 寒いが月夜が綺麗な夜でした

Cappadociaaaaa, カッパーーー

You might've seen a photo of Cappadocia before. There were many strange shaped rocks in huge area. Scenery of that those rocks under blue sky is incredible. However, those are not just strange rocks; I think scenery of rocks itself is not very special. What makes very special is that people had been living in caves in those rocks since before century; I saw many caves on my way here.
写真で見た事がある人も少なくはないと思うが、カッパドキアは奇岩が至る所にそびえていて、青い空に突き出た奇岩群は感動もの。ただ、これだけならアメリカのブライスキャニオンやアーチーズの方がよっぽど壮大。ここが何でスゴイかと言うと、奇岩をくり抜いた家等に紀元前から人が住んでいた事。自転車で来る途中もたちどころに穴が空いてて、人が住んでいた痕跡が伺える。



Gyoreme, ギョレメ村

Only this village is just a super touristic village, but it still very beautiful around.
ギョレメ村だけ見ると、かなり観光地でドン引きだけど、やっぱり世界のギョレメだけあって景色は素晴らしい。
The under ground city. It has 8 stories under ground, and there were used to be 10,000 people living here. I was impressed how people created this.
地下都市。地下8階まであって、かつては1万人も人が住んでたらしい。良くこんな壮大な穴を掘りましたな~
Entrance, 入り口

Going down, 階段を降りて行く

Many rooms and branch of tracks all over, it's like ant home.
ありの巣ように部屋がいたる所にある。

I think Cappadocia is good place to take times, so I stay here for awhile.
なかなかカッパドキアは見所沢山あって面白いんで、しばらくチャリは置いて、散策する事にします。
