Why UCHISAR should be on your CAPPADOCIA travel bucket list | Turkey Travel Vlog

- Uçhisar is an absolute must-visit in Cappadocia. It's much more quiet and residential than Göreme. Uchisar Castle dominates the landscape and it's the best spot for an incredible sunset. In this vlog we spent the day wandering all around Uchisar by foot.
We started our day off with a meal at Centre Restaurant which served delicious food in a peaceful homely setting. It was so good we ate there a few times during our stay in Uçhisar, Cappadocia.
Centre Restaurant
Address: Yukarı, Yukarı mahalle Park sokak Fatih caddesi, Pazar yeri meydanı no 7, 50240 Uçhisar/Nevşehir Merkez/Nevşehir, Turkey
To visit Pigeon Valley, there are a few view points, but the the Google maps marker simply called "Pigeon Valley" is where you'll find the souvenir shops and bird feeding station. Vasıl Cafe is along the roadside, a few minutes walk from Pigeon Valley.
Vasıl Cafe
Address: Aşağı, Adnan Menderes Cd. No:7, 50240 Uçhisar/Nevşehir Merkez/Nevşehir, Turkey

Both Tiraz and Uçhisar Castle are absolutely worth visiting, simply for the magnificent views that they offer but if you love exploring you can spend hours going through both these rock castles in Cappadocia. Going to the very top of Uchisar Castle is definitely worth it for the amazing views especially at sunset.

Dear Yen and Peter, I have become addicted to your videos of Turkey. You are doing a great job for introducing my beautiful country to the outside world.
Thank you for such kind words! We're very glad to hear you enjoy our videos. We had a wonderful time in Türkiye and hope to return again one day 🙂
Don't you just love Turkey 💕
Absolutely! 💯 Such an amazing country 💕
Absolutely one of my favorite places that I have visited. 💞 ❤️
So much to see and do under the beautiful blue skies.. fascinating stuff guys ..thanks heaps for sharing
Thanks so much Diesel and for tuning in week after week 👍 We appreciate your support 😊 Turkey is such a cool country and with so many different things to see and do. Each city is uniquely different too (as you'll see when we move onto the next spots) 😊 Cappadocia was particularly awesome though coz of those rock castles and hot air ballooning 💕
Hi,
I just wanted to say, again, that these Turkey videos are great. We have watched all your videos. We found your videos when we were researching our trip to NZ for the America’s Cup….that didn’t quite pan out. At least you got to see in person.
Looking forward to the next video drop.
Hiya Anthony, thank you so much and for watching all our videos too, that's amazing! 🙏🙏🙏❤️ Aww that's a bummer you weren't able to make it for the America's Cup.. it was a really awesome time. I think we all just were happy to have something to celebrate again given the situation at the time in NZ especially! Hope you'll enjoy the upcoming videos too ❤️ Been so busy with other stuff going on but we're definitely still chipping away at all our editing and making sure we get our videos out on time so thank you so much for your support. Really appreciate it 😊❤️❤️
The castles in Uçhisar look amazing! Almost like their version of hobbit holes 😉
I love that Peter Dolittle made some new animal friends too 🐴
Oh, and I think that was a mulberry that Peter ate 🍓
Hahaha yes mulberry thanks for the info Rob. Interestingly was reading about silk worms and apparently they only eat mulberry leaves. Found that particularly interesting especially since mulberry were so plentiful in turkey. They could have a big silk worm farm going on over there 😂🤔
beautifully taken, edited and explained video... love your video thumbs up
now I can understand and see why Peter is so fascinated with the rock castle.... it's amazing
Hahah yes they're so much fun to explore and have the most incredible views 😍
you two are amazing. so weird to get to know about the Turkish culture and places to visit through you since I should be teaching others about my own country. However, I am in awe, you two have done a brilliant job and I am planning a trip now for my whole family to Cappadocia thanks to you I think io can even keep my teenagers entertained with the suggestions you put into your videos. I am watching
g it all and am soooo excited to go !!! Thank you both for doing this!!! After my visit I will make sure others around me in the UK will hear about your videos and my own experiences in Cappadocia.
Thank you for your lovely message and we're so glad to hear that you'll be visiting Cappadocia 😊 it's such a special place! We loved our time in Turkiye and Cappadocia remains one of our fave places we've visited to date ❤️ hope you have an amazing time with your family and also thank you for sharing our channel too 🙂
Thanks!
Thank you so much for your contribution and support Brian! 😊 We appreciate it! 💕💕
The rock castle is amazing!!
So much fun to explore them! 😊👍 Have you been to Cappadocia before Arstiah?
Teşekküler her zamanki gibi
Güzel bir video olmus.
Teşekkür ederiz 🙂 Videoyu beğendiğine sevindim 🙏
Another incredibly quality video...thank you for showing such amazing place...and thank you for your natural amazing vibes:))) 🙏🙏🙏👍❤️
Thank you Behzat! We hope you're well in Istanbul 🙏❤️👍 Definitely missing our time in Turkey ❤️
The pasta looks good and cream looks light, Peter’s desert is a good way to wrap up lunch 😋 The Uchisar Castle, they have really large “bay window”🫣
Lovely sunset to finish off the day
Thanks for sharing your time and have a great week
Hahah those bay windows were the best! Who needs glass anyway 😂
How is it being back home? Are you missing NZ yet? Hope you have a great week ahead too 😊
@@PeterandYen Missing NZ very very much, but have learnt meaning of peace, do not outsource it, will be chill in KL and not get sucked in my the materialistic whirlpool. Will be back soon 😁
At least you get all the delicious Malaysian food again 😁💕
I will reply to your other comments soon from the past few weeks videos! These are some crazy cool locations! Well at least Peter FED the donkey instead of himself first! haha! But yeah food right after that! Oh. My. Goodness! That food just looks sooooooo good! If only we can smell that food through the camera of screen we're watching on! Those views are just amazing Pigeon Viewpoint wow! Oh Pigeon Valley! Yeah those caves and castles be so fun to explore there! And yeah indeed people would have lived there! Some super amazing views and still amazed at that location! Nice motel place too! Really cool and always appreciate your videos!
Hahaha Mr donkey was the cutest 😆💕 cappadocia is incredible.. glad we spent a solid 2 weeks there to enjoy everything 🙂 next vlog.. we go to an underground city 😁✌️ thanks for always supporting our channel!
I’m a newborn mom so your channel is an awesome way to see the world and add things to my bucket list ❤ you two are great explorers!
Aww congrats on your newborn baby ❤️ and thank you! Glad you're enjoying our videos 😊
Love your videos Yen and Peter! Very useful..
Thank you 😊 🙏
Uçhisar is beautiful 😎🥰💖✨
For sure 😁 one of our absolute favorites
This is one very interesting pl n love the marketing site....so cool 😍😍
That market place was a really cool place to stumble upon! 😊
Thanks for making these videos !
I like your style of traveling. Good research, taking your time to get familiar with the larger area instead of focusing only on the “main attractions” and lots of curiosity, e.g. for local foods. By the way, did you visit any underground cities built during the Hittite times? They are much more bigger than the rock castles and head in the opposite direction, namely deep into the ground.
Thank you for your kind words 🙏❤️ and yes we did manage to go to Derinkuyu! It's actually in our next vlog 😁👍 We took the Green Tour to go to see it. Wish we had more time in the underground city to explore, it's pretty rushed with a tour group so it made it a challenge for us to vlog at the same time but it was the most cost effective way for us to get to see more places. It was very cool though! Such fascinating history throughout Türkiye 🙂
Interesting Rock Castles, must have been an amazing experience. Good video, guys. Very informative.
Thank you and yes it was 😊 We loved exploring those rock castles.
Love all ur video and information u shared. Im planning to go to turkey march 2024❤️
Thank you 😊 hope you have an amazing time in turkey 🇹🇷 ✌️
I just love how y’all always visit places I’ve never heard of 😂
Yo Sundai happy 2023 😁✌️ that can be some of the best days finding the random places and exploring
Truly awesome video guys! Looking forward to your next adventure.
Thanks so much! We've got plenty to share from our Turkey travels. It's super cool that each city is so unique and different 😊
Awesome vlog guys! So ancient that even graffiti is now historic. Peter I don't think that inner child is too far beneath the surface 🤣.
Hahahaha soooo true!! Didn't evet think about it from that perspective. The soldiers living there may have just done that drawing for fun who knows how long ago and now we're marveling at it on a UA-cam video 😂
@@PeterandYen time has a way of turning criminal damage into historic treasures 🤣🤣
😂 one day the graffiti on our walls might be studied and ppl will think that it depicts our society
@@PeterandYen absolutely 💯 😃
Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa finally Mr. Donkey!!!! Tiny little fellow:) Hahaha finally nice to meet the legend of Mr. Donkey! And noodles!! I don't know how long I could go without Asian food... definitely not as long as you guys have... I would have asked for just the pasta with mushroom and chicken sans sauce.. I would have just brought a soy sauce packet and mixed it with the pasta:) What an awesome place... nothing is better than something (or someone) that brings out your inner kid... the more the inner kid gets to come out, the better life is. Thanks guys for sharing such awesome places. And three mmmms...that sums it up perfectly Peter... it went exactly where it was going which is where you were taking it so we can go to where we needed to be :)
😁👍 one of my favourite memories from the entire trip is the couple of days that Yen and I spent walking around these castles 🏰 we both loved how raw everything was and the natural castles... can't emphasize just how incredible they are. Certainly one of the most amazing things I've ever seen in my life.
Top that off with great food and friendly animals 👌 such a cool memory miss this place a lot 😅
Hahahaha Yen was almost at the soy sauce point 😂😂😂
@@PeterandYen The castles were very very very cool... had no idea about them until your vids so thank you...and for introducing me to all the amazing Turkish foods...
Turkey has so many cool places that are surprisingly not very well known.. like Mt Chimaera where flames have been perpetually burning for over 2,500 years! 😀 Such cool natural phenomenon.. or hot I should say 😆😅
The view of those rock/hills from above look so cool
Such a unique and incredible landscape in Cappadocia!
@@PeterandYen sure is. Travelling widen our horizon
Wow so amazing guys 😲
Was so much fun waking up and exploring all the different caves of the region
Awesome video. ❤❤
Love to watch your journey, exploring Turkiye.
Would you please let me know where did you stay in Turkiye ? Thank you.
good video mate
Thanks for watching 👍
They are mulberries. here in the U.S.A. there is an abundance of streets named " Mulberry ", but no mulberry trees.
Super B Vlog cant wsit the next episode 👍. The tree what you eat his fruit was a black Mullberry tree ;) .
Thank you! Ooo good to know.. looks like Yen was more onto it with the mulberry 😁👍
@@PeterandYen Yeahj, Yen have say the right Asnwer for the Mulberry ))
👍👍👍
😁🤙
Just fyi, Cappadocia does not only consist of what is being named the area as Cappadocia today. It is much more than that.
Good to know! Thank you for sharing 👍
I love your shawl/scarf. Would you please share it where can I find it
Zwiedzilem Capadocjie w tamtym roku,lecz nieszczesnego Messjiasza z Walbrzyskich morsow Szmigla nie zastalem .Czyz by szukal nastepnej niewiasty z Walbrzyskich morsow za zone.😂
Maulbeerbaum? 😊
is it easy to get taxi there? love your videos!
There are a few taxis there, but worth noting that ride sharing like Uber doesn't work in that area.
Mulberry? 😊
Is there supermarket around or local food markets?
There are heaps of local markets nearby that have your essentials. Every city/ town that we've visited have them 😊
Visited 13 to 22/10/022 follow travel agency.
Not as adventure as yours with time limit between 25 to 30 minutes on each visitation, honestly doesn't really satisfying 😢
How you gals travel, on own?
I am from Malaysia, what about you if you don't mind asking
Hello 👋 Yen is from Malaysia originally and I'm from China but we both grew up in New Zealand.
I agree travel agency is usually way too rushed. We normally research how to get around using public transport which is often cheaper and gives you freedom of how long you want to spend at a place.
