Göreme is a town in Cappadocia. Settlements in the area began in the 3rd and 4th centuries, when Christians from the Roman period founded several monasteries. Like most of the constructions in Cappadocia, these were not buildings, but sites carved out of the rock, in the form of artificial caves. There are still remains of monuments, chapels, bedrooms, warehouses and churches, many of them decorated with frescoes from the 11th and 12th centuries.
Göreme es una población en Capadocia. Los asentamientos en el área comenzaron en los siglos III y IV, cuando los cristianos del período romano fundaron varios monasterios. Como la mayoría de las construcciones en Capadocia, no se trataba de edificios, sino de sitios excavados en la roca, en forma de cuevas artificiales. Aún existen restos de monumentos, capillas, alcobas, almacenes e iglesias, muchos de ellos decorados con frescos de los siglos XI y XII.
