Aksaray
Aksaray · Türkiye
This Silk Road stopover city in Central Anatolia, Aksaray has a walkable centre with cafés, restaurants, and monuments predating the Ottoman era, plus early Turkish Republic architecture around its main square. The Melendiz river runs through the city, and Mt. Hasan rises in the distance. Aksaray sits close to Cappadocia and makes a practical, less-touristed base for exploring the wider region.
