13. Cappadocia, Aksaray, Turkey
Where: Aksaray, Turkey
200s is the year
* Located in Turkey's Central Anatolian area, Cappadocia is a place where entire cities have been sculpted out of volcanic rock. A week-long stay will cost between $1,000 and $3,000. The white rock formations in the terrain were formed millions of years ago, giving the impression that it is an abandoned extraterrestrial desert. As fascinating as Cappadocia's geological past is its human history.

This totally deserted city has discovered two hundred underground structures, all of which are entirely uninhabited. They are constructed eleven levels below the surface. The initial purpose of Cappadocia's underground tunnels and structures was to aid families in escaping in the case of an assault.
