The Monastery of Selime, a huge monastery and residence🇹🇷

📍Turkish, Cappadocia, Selime Monastery

This is the Selime Monastery that we visited during the Cappadocia Green Tour! It is a monastery where Christians hid and prayed to avoid religious persecution a long time ago. It is the oldest historical site in Turkiye, where traces of that time still remain.

Not only that, this area is also known as a filming location for Star Wars, and it has such beautiful natural scenery! (Actually, the filming was canceled because the government did not give permission🥲)

It also means that it has such beautiful nature, so why not go to the Selime Monastery and feel the great nature along with the religious history of a country? 🙌🎈
