A historical evidence of Christian church from 2nd century. Most of the Fresco has been broken by antichrist. One of the church, dark church, is the most complete one. Pay 10€ to enter the church as donation.

Don't leave your money in the car. There's an extra admission fee and a long way back to parking

Unless you are a historian and you already got the audio guide, DO NOT ENTER, nothing special and in your tour you have already seen the exact same thing for free, it a room with nothing special in it. Don't fall into this scam

Open air museum is breathtaking but the churches themselves were very small and often very dark and cramped

We, already suffering from cave church fatigue, were reluctant to pay the extra 8 Euro entrance fee. In the end, our inner curious cat prevailed. Upon entering the church, a cool breeze greeted us, offering a respite from the oppressing heat. The Church was small and dimly lit. When our eyes grew accustomed to the darkness, we were dumbfounded by the scene before us. The elaborate and beautiful frescos were everywhere on the walls, pillars and ceiling. We found famous biblical scenes such as the Last Supper and Crucifixion on the wall. We experienced tranquility and spirituality as we walked around. All this while, Jesus Christ was watching from the ceiling with his benevolent eyes.

There is an extra fee to enter the dark church. It’s one level only and the frescos here are the most restored in all of the Goreme open air museum. See it for the techniques, but skip it if you’re ok with the frescos seen in the other chapels/churches.

Where we got engaged in September 2020, a lot less foreigners so there’s more space around! Absolutely love Turkey ??

Well, images are in a very good condition, but it's SO SMALL!!!! I don't understand why they charge you extra for it. The entire Open Museum worth 1 dollar without this one, and then you charge extra for it? I don't get it... Overall, if you got into Open Air museum, yes, visit this one, but if you're thinking if it worth paying for Open Air museum - NO, it's not!
