nearby resorts and features the Library of Celsus and

theatre is one of the best-preserved ancient theatres. It was
built during the rule of Marcus Aurelius and could seat up
to 20,000 spectators. Over the years, it was routinely
repaired and maintained due to its role as a roadside inn,
thus ensuring its survival to modern times.

ancient cities, including Derinkuyu and Mazi, the
underground cities in Cappadocia are a popular and
