TravelTranscript
00:30Assalam Alekum and Good Morning Everyone from Cappadocia, Turkey.
00:33My plan for today is to explore all the famous sites and valleys of Cappadocia.
00:38After that, we will do night camping in the evening.
00:41If I can find the spot that I have found on the internet, hopefully.
00:45Because it's often difficult to find a spot on the internet.
00:50Or it's impossible to find a spot on the internet.
00:52So, I am going to do night camping in the evening.
00:55Because it's often difficult to find a spot on the internet.
01:00So, if I can find a spot, we will do wild camping.
01:04If not, we will look for a place to stay in a hotel or somewhere else.
01:09I went to see the sunrise in the morning.
01:12There is a village called Ochisar in this region, Cappadocia.
01:16They don't fly balloons these days.
01:19Only one or two balloons are flown.
01:21It's for the students who are learning how to fly balloons.
01:25That's why the sunrise was a bit different.
01:28But it was a great experience.
01:30You can see the sunrise from Ochisar in Cappadocia.
01:33I am gonna have my breakfast here and enjoy the view of Cappadocia.
01:37After that, I have to pack my stuff in the room.
01:41It's 5.10 in the morning and I am leaving my hotel.
01:46My plan is to go to the village Ochisar in the south.
01:50I am gonna take some pictures there, fly my drone and enjoy the sunrise.
01:56Basically, there are a lot of different spots from here where you can go.
02:01Normally, people come here in groups and enjoy the sunrise from here.
02:06But unfortunately, balloons are not in use these days.
02:10So, I have already spent a couple of days here.
02:14Let's try something different.
02:16Let's see if I can get a better view from there.
02:19I have already seen it from here.
02:23It's about 6.5 km from here.
02:27It's a 10 minute ride. It's not that far.
02:30But it's gonna be a fun ride.
02:32And I think the quality of the video is gonna be better.
02:36Because the light in the morning is quite good.
02:44Let's go.
02:54As you can see, these are the balloons and everything is closed.
03:00It's a mess here.
03:03The sun is slowly coming out from behind.
03:07And the castle you can see in the distance is the Ochisar castle.
03:13The plan is to go towards the Pigeon valley.
03:18Let's go there and fly the drone from there.
03:21Let's take some nice shots of the castle.
03:28Check out the houses here.
03:30They are all built in caves.
03:32It's part of the UNESCO World Heritage.
03:35Ochisar and Gurem.
03:43Let's go.
03:44OCHISAR
03:46OCHISAR
04:11Let's take a short ride through Ochisar.
04:14It's not a city but a village.
04:17Let me show you around.
04:20This is the main square of the village.
04:22And the castle is right behind it.
04:25Let's have a look at the castle.
04:27And then we will continue our ride towards Gurem.
04:33Let's have a close up view of the castle.
04:37You must have seen the drone shots.
04:40The sun is shining right in front of us.
04:48This is the castle of Gurem.
04:50I am sorry, I meant the castle of Ochisar.
04:54There is no one here and we are alone.
04:58I don't think we can go there.
05:01That's the entrance.
05:03We can go there by jumping.
05:05But not without it.
05:07That's not necessary.
05:09When we have a drone that can go up,
05:11we don't have to worry about going up.
05:33OCHISAR
05:52This is my room.
05:54I have been staying in this hotel for the last two nights.
05:56The room I stayed in on the first night,
05:58didn't have an AC.
06:00It was a little cheap.
06:02I paid only 100 Lira.
06:04Which is around 12-13 Euros.
06:06When I started booking for the next night,
06:08I asked them if there was any empty room.
06:10I can shift there.
06:12They gave me a discount.
06:14I had to pay only 120 Lira.
06:16The best part is that
06:18you don't need an AC in this room at night.
06:20You can sleep peacefully in this room.
06:22It's a cool room.
06:24It's an upgrade.
06:26And my dream of sleeping in a cave room,
06:28has come true.
06:30I have to leave now.
06:32I have to explore some underground cities.
06:34I was planning to go there first.
06:36It's a 40 km ride from here.
06:40It will take around 40-50 minutes.
06:44Then I have to come back here.
06:46I am planning to leave all my luggage here.
06:48And when I am free for the second time,
06:50we will go to the place
06:52where I want to do wild camping.
06:58Thank you. That's fine.
07:10This guy saved me a lot of time.
07:12It's a 40 km ride from here.
07:14There are two underground cities.
07:16Both are closed due to Coronavirus.
07:18If I hadn't asked him,
07:20I would have gone there,
07:22took an hour to reach there
07:24and then another hour to come back.
07:26He saved me a lot of time.
07:28Our next stop will be
07:30the Grom Open Air Museum.
07:32I think we will leave from here
07:34and go to the main road.
07:38There are very few tourists here.
07:40That's why they have stopped a lot of activities.
07:42Let me show you my hotel.
07:44It's right behind this.
07:46You might be able to see it.
07:48It's a very beautiful location.
07:50You can see the whole village from here.
07:52The whole valley.
07:56Let's go.
08:14I think we have reached
08:16the Open Air Museum.
08:18We can go from here as well.
08:20Let's park the bike here.
08:26Finally,
08:28I have reached the Grom Open Air Museum.
08:30This site has been included
08:32in the UNESCO World Heritage
08:34since 1985.
08:36It was the second site in Turkey
08:38to be included in this list.
08:40The churches here are very famous
08:42and that's why it was included.
08:44When you enter,
08:46you get a feeling of Petra,
08:48the place I visited in Jordan.
08:50But it's much smaller
08:52and much older than that.
08:54It's relatively not that old.
08:56The caves might be old,
08:58but the churches are not that old.
09:00Let's go and explore
09:02the churches and caves here.
09:24There are small caves
09:26next to the churches.
09:28And there are tombs in those caves.
09:30These are the tombs of the people
09:32who built the churches
09:34or helped in building them.
09:36There are only two tombs
09:38next to a small church.
09:40That means only two people
09:42helped in building this church.
09:44There are a lot of churches here.
09:46I don't know the exact number,
09:48but I have already visited
09:5015 or 20 churches.
09:52I don't know the exact number,
09:54but I have already visited
09:5615 or 20 churches.
10:08The main popularity of
10:10Chromaire Museums
10:12is the churches of the 11th and 12th century.
10:14The paintings and pictures
10:16on the walls of the churches
10:18show how the people of Chromaire
10:20used to travel to Jerusalem and Bethlehem.
10:22There is a church of nativity
10:24in Bethlehem.
10:26I forgot the name of the church
10:28in Jerusalem,
10:30but it is in my Jerusalem vlog.
10:32I will put its name in the description.
10:34The church I am standing outside
10:36is called Dark Church.
10:38All the churches are closed
10:40due to Corona.
10:42To enter Dark Church,
10:44you have to pay an extra ticket
10:46which is 25 Lira.
10:48All the main attractions are closed.
10:50I understand that
10:52if you have a ticket
10:54and you are inviting people,
10:56why are the churches closed?
10:58If they are closed,
11:00why not reduce the number of tickets?
11:18I am looking towards this direction
11:20because I have to do some camping
11:22around here in the evening.
11:24But the road is ahead.
11:26The view of this valley
11:28is very beautiful
11:30from the sunset point.
11:32This is the back side of the valley.
11:34You can see the sunset point.
11:36The view is amazing from here.
11:38I am going to take a break
11:40and come back.
11:42See you in the next video.
11:44Take care.
11:47The Grom will be on the front or back side.
11:50You can see the Open Air Museum
11:52on the back side.
11:56The map is not visible
11:58when the sun is shining from behind.
12:02We are going in the right direction.
12:06This is just a viewpoint.
12:10This is a very good place for camping.
12:12I can camp here as well
12:14instead of going in the opposite direction.
12:18There is a lot of garbage here.
12:22But I think this is a good place.
12:24You can camp here
12:26with a lot of fun.
12:28The view in the morning and evening
12:30is amazing.
12:32Sunrise from here
12:34and sunset on this side.
12:36It's an amazing place.
12:38But since I have time,
12:40let's see the other places as well.
12:42Let's go for a bike ride.
12:44This is a good place for a bike ride.
12:46You can park it here.
12:48These people are disturbing me.
12:56Let's see if we can find the other side.
12:58The road will be a little ahead.
13:06Another car is here.
13:12Oh God!
13:22This is the wrong way.
13:34Sorry?
13:38I am not sure if there is a road going down.
13:42Let's go.
14:12Let's go.
14:24I think the previous place
14:26will be the best.
14:28It will embarrass me in the future.
14:30It's going way down.
14:32If I bring all my stuff with me,
14:34it will be a big problem.
14:36I am scared to leave this place.
14:39The dirt on the road
14:41is going to be a big problem for me.
14:44May God help me.
14:50I didn't even wear my other shoes.
14:52And the bike is covered in sand.
15:08Let's go.
15:25I was going in the second gear.
15:27I could have taken it with me.
15:29It will be a big problem
15:31to take it up from here.
15:33I should have brought my scooter.
16:03Let's go.
16:19I have to get all my stuff from down there.
16:22And then we will leave.
16:24It's getting late.
16:26I don't want to come here in the evening.
16:28I want to come here to die.
16:30Or maybe it was the wrong way.
16:32I should have gone up.
16:34I didn't want to go down the valley.
16:36Thank God.
16:38I am in a bad shape.
16:40There is a small section left.
16:42I think it will be easy.
16:44There won't be any problem here.
16:46There is a water station in front of me.
16:48Someone has put up a fence.
16:50I had a glass of water from here.
16:52This is a camping site.
16:55Let's stop here and have a glass of water.
16:57Because I am in a very bad shape.
17:01There was a fence here.
17:03I had a glass of water from here.
17:05I don't know if I have enough water to drink.
17:07But whatever it is,
17:09let's be patient and have this.
17:11We will have more later.
17:13Let's go.
17:30I am on the main road now.
17:32Let's see what's ahead.
17:43Let's go.
18:01We are back.
18:03I shouldn't have gone that way.
18:05When I reached in the middle,
18:07I had an idea that I am in trouble.
18:09But I couldn't have gone back from there.
18:11I couldn't have gone back from there.
18:13There was only one way to go down.
18:15Until I find a place where I can turn.
18:19That was on Dilan.
18:21It was not possible to turn from there.
18:23My hand is shaking with difficulty.
18:27I hope there is no swelling on it.
18:29If there is, it will be a big problem.
18:31For the next few days,
18:33I will be riding in Turkey.
18:35Let's see.
18:42The road that I had taken before,
18:44was a wrong one.
18:46I just added a route in maps.me.
18:48It has given me a route.
18:50Let's see how it turns out to be.
18:52Hopefully, it will be better than before.
18:54It was written that there will be a barrier ahead.
18:56You have to cross it.
18:58You have to pay for it.
19:00Let's see.
19:02There is a guy sitting there.
19:05He took 5 lira from me.
19:07This road goes towards the sunset point.
19:09It's on the Red Valley.
19:11There is an off road section here.
19:13Let's go and see what it is like.
19:15If it gets damaged, we will come back.
19:17I don't want to get into any trouble.
19:19I don't want to go down.
19:21Let's go.
19:23Let's go.
19:25Let's go.
19:27Let's go.
19:29Let's go.
19:31Let's go.
19:33I don't want to get into any trouble.
19:35It's all mud, sand and dust.
19:37This is fine.
19:39There is no problem at all.
19:43I was thinking of going to the same spot.
19:45But then I thought, let's see.
19:47I have time.
19:49Maybe this is a better spot than that.
19:51People have praised this place a lot.
19:55This is an amazing place.
19:57Check it out.
19:59I don't know if you can see it in the GoPro.
20:01The cones of the Red Valley.
20:18I think we have found our camping spot.
20:25I feel a little proud that I didn't give up.
20:30If I wanted to, I would have gone back.
20:33I would have regretted it.
20:35But this is a great camping spot.
20:38It's better than the previous one.
20:40You can see why I am saying this.
20:43The sunsets and sunrises here will be amazing.
20:47It's not too far from civilization.
20:51Check this out.
20:54The sunsets here will be amazing.
20:58Let's see.
21:00Let's go back now.
21:02We will come back here in the evening to camp.
21:23It's very unique.
21:25It's different on the left side and different on the right side.
21:28I think we have to go to the right side now.
21:33The left side is also very beautiful.
21:38There is a No Parking sign here.
21:40But there are two motorcycles parked right behind the No Parking sign.
21:47This is the Red Valley.
21:50These are the chimneys of Pasha Bagh Valley.
21:52I have reached here very easily.
21:54There was no off-road section here.
21:56There are a lot of museums and shops here.
21:58The entrance fee is 20 Lira.
22:00The 75 Lira they charged earlier was very expensive.
22:03But this is acceptable.
22:05As I am recording, the clouds are thundering.
22:08A couple of water droplets have fallen down.
22:12Hopefully, the weather won't get worse.
22:14Otherwise, I will have to cancel my camping plan.
22:17Because I don't want to camp out here in the rain.
22:22But for now, let's spend some time here.
22:24Let's take some pictures.
22:26If we get a good point, then we can leave.
22:47Let's go.
23:10It's raining heavily.
23:12I don't know if you can hear me.
23:14The rain water on the roof is very loud.
23:17But it's possible that my shotgun mic is catching my voice.
23:22It's raining so heavily that I don't know if we will go wild camping or not.
23:26My plan is to wait here.
23:28Because it's dangerous to ride in the rain and wind.
23:30As soon as the weather gets better, we will go to the city and check.
23:35If I get there before sunset and if the weather is good, then we will go wild camping.
23:41If not, then we will look for a room in that hotel.
23:45If they don't have one, then we will look for another place.
23:48But for now, I have ordered something to eat.
23:50I don't know what it's called.
23:52I think it's meat inside a roti.
23:54Let's eat this and then decide what to do next.
24:11Let's park the bike inside and move ahead.
24:19Let's check out the room.
24:21I was staying in a cave room earlier.
24:23That was amazing.
24:25It cost me 120 INR.
25:11Thank you for watching!
