Avanos, Turcaí

Avanos, Turcaí

Avanos Turcaí

The village of Avanos is located on the banks of the Kizilirmak, the famous Red River. The city is about 8 kilometres (5 miles) from Goreme. Avanos has a centre that offers all the usual, modern amenities geared towards tourism, including a Hamam (Turkish Bath). A street market comes to Avanos every Friday, so we suggest you visit Avanos on Fridays. This market of tents has everything for the house, clothes, fruits and vegetables, and more. From the outskirts, you can appreciate how the village of Avanos winds through the hills that stretch away from the city, forming a labyrinth of beautiful stone houses. Some of these houses have been restored, some converted, and some sadly left to their fate. In some of the abandoned houses, you can see the characteristics of traditional Ottoman architecture, along with ancient decorations, ornaments, and wall paintings.
