Cappadocia, an eleven hour overnight bus journey from Istanbul is found nearly exactly in the middle of Turkey. It is a region that seems to have come straight out of a fairy tale, as is reflected in the name of its most famous feature ‘the Fairy Chimneys’.

Cappadocia is a volcanic landscape formed by a combination of eruption and erosion which have come together to form a surreal luna landscape. The soft rock was ideal for early settlers, who chiselled themselves grottos and entire houses from the rock itself, setting the standard for inhabitants over the next two thousand years.

During the medieval period, Cappadocia was home to Christian refugees, hiding from Romans and then latterly the Muslims who periodically swept through the region. The Christians built entire churches – of which the finest example is probably the Dark Church – inside the chimneys and decorated them with amazing frescos that have, for the most part, survived the elements and are still remarkable sights.

Underneath the spires of the Fairy Chimneys are entire subterranean cities, when threatened the locals would abandon their dwellings on the surface and take shelter under the ground. Some of the cities held as many as 10,000 people and carried many lines of defences. No one lives underground any more, but you can get a guided tour of one of the underground cities, complete with granaries, churches with baptismal pools, and stables where animals were once kept in safety.

Nowadays, many of the caves have been converted into boutique hotels, many which even include underground Turkish baths, so you don’t have to rough it out to get a feeling of what life may have been like a thousand years ago. At the end of a long day sightseeing, you can even enjoy a glass of wine from the region. Cappadocia’s history of viticulture goes back 4,000 years and you’ll see why as soon as you taste the first drop.

Although staying in the caves is expensive, transport is not particularly, and its well worth splashing just a little extra cash to spend a night in one of the most remarkably located hotels on the planet.

Further away from the Mediterranean, the Nile runs through a dryer, harsher land. The cities are smaller and calmer, and the fields surrounding the Nile are populated by workers from palm strewn villages. It is a completely different country, and the rest of the world feels hundreds of miles away.

That sentiment is only enhanced by the ruins that lie along the edge of the river, ranging from Ancient Egyptian to Greaco-Roman in the form of temples at Esna and Edfu, there’s a little bit of everything, and the juxtaposition between the awe-inspiring beauty of the temples and the humble surroundings of the village is unforgettable.

Of course, the only way to get out and see some of the best sights is by taking a boat. The Nile is a busy waterway, but at certain times of day it’s remarkably peaceful, and gliding through the water in a traditional Egyptian boat is a great way to spend a couple of hours.

The most famous city in the far south of Egypt is Aswan, mostly known for the High Dam. Aswan is the administrative capital, and in some ways feels quite modern, but it has retained a lot of its old Nubian culture, particularly in the vibrant souks, that rival anything else to be found in the Middle East. Aswan has a wonderful museum of Nubian culture that has to be visited, not to mention the beautiful public gardens that dot the city centre.

The lake created by the Aswan Dam would have destroyed hundreds of famous sites. The most famous, and most striking of all is Abu Simbel, the Great Temple of Ramesses II that was relocated in its entirety in 1968 to protect it from the waters of the lake. The statues of Ramesses presence in Abu Simbel is inescapable, four twenty metre tall statues dominate the entire site, and as well as stunning visitors for thousands of years have inspired some legendary works of literature. Less well known than the pyramids, it really is the jewel in the crown of Egypt’s amazing historical collection.

If there is one drawback to the south of Egypt, it’s that it’s more difficult to reach than the more well known and well trodden sites to the north. But if you make the effort of the journey, you’re sure to see things that you’ll remember for the rest of your life.
