Selime Monastery...Aksaray, Turkey...

#EuropeanTravel #SelemeMonastery #Turkiye
An 8th-9th century rock monastery towering over a hill at the end of the Ihlara Valley... Seleme Monastery.
Seleme Monastery is a historical monastery located in the Cappadocia region of Turkey. This monastery is known as one of the famous Christian sites in Cappadocia.
It is said that during the Islamic era when there was religious oppression, they carved out a rock mountain and protected the monastery by living inside it.
So it is a place with historical pain for them.
This is a place you must visit when you go on a Cappadocia tour, and the surrounding scenery is beautiful and bizarre.
