The village of Tatlarin
The village of Tatlarin, located 10 km north of the town of Acigol, is one of the interesting places in Cappadocia because of both its underground settlement and churches and the architecture of its houses.
Its underground settlement, located on the hill called "the castle" by the locals of the village, was first discovered in 1975 and opened to the public in 1991. The size of the chambers in the underground settlement, only two floors of which also can only be found at the Guzelyurt underground settlement; the abundance of the depots for food and of the churches make one think that this place was either a garison or a monastic complex rather than an underground settlement. |
