Kaymaklõ Underground City, Cappadocia Overview
Kaymakli Underground City, in Kaymakli town near Nevsehir, is the widest of Cappadocia's underground cities and one of the largest of the 36 discovered so far. Built during the Hittite era as a refuge during raids, it has 8 levels of cellars, storage rooms, stables and wineries, though only 4 are open to visitors, with most of the interest concentrated on the 3rd floor.
The underground city was brilliantly planned. There is also a ventilation shaft which goes through the entire settlement. There are houses and storage places with slabs to keep objects. Archaeologists believed that more than 3000 people resided in the Kaymakli Underground City.
