Church & Hazan Calls

We have compiled 14 churches for you, from the oldest churches to the most visited ones in Nevşehir, which also contribute to religious tourism of the area. These magnificent buildings, built by the first Christians who created new living space in Nevşehir by escaping from the persecution of the pagan Emperor Constantine I, still stay firm today.

In Nevşehir, the areas where churches are located are always more impressive and where many other beauties are centered around. When you walk around before entering the Church, it is not difficult to guess how this mysterious atmosphere and scenery affected you as well as the people of that time, and how such beautiful works came out. Despite the differences in belief between us.

Nevşehir, one of the most important cities of Christianity, fascinates people with its historical texture and natural beauties. With around 400 churches and chapels within 92 protected area, this city, which is one of Turkey's most important cultural centres, attracts not only Christian tourists but everyone who visits. We have compiled the best-protected ones for you on this route.

As we said at the beginning, you will visit 14 different churches on our route. You will go an average of 50 kilometres on our route, for that reason we recommend you to start by having a good breakfast. Therefore, we especially advise you to drive. We think we have provided all the information for our route, which we recommend to start at 10:00 in the morning so that you can visit all the artefacts in a full day. If you are ready, we can begin.
