Monaliza Tours: Cappadocia

Cappadocia Turcaí

Cappadocia is a historical region in Central Anatolia, largely in the Nevşehir, Kayseri, Kırşehir, Aksaray, and Niğde Provinces in Turkey. According to Herodotus,[1] in the time of the Ionian Revolt (499 BCE) the Cappadocians were reported as occupying a region from Mount Taurus to the vicinity of the Euxine (Black Sea). Cappadocia, in this sense, was bounded in the south by the chain of the Taurus Mountains that separate it from Cilicia, to the east by the upper Euphrates, to the north by Pontus, and to the west by Lycaonia and eastern Galatia.[2] The name, traditionally used in Christian sources throughout history,[citation needed] continues in use as an international tourism concept to define a region of exceptional natural wonders, in particular characterized by fairy chimneys and a unique historical and cultural heritage. Cappadocia is staraíochta réigiún i Anatolia Lárnach, go príomha i na cúigí Nevşehir, Kayseri, Kırşehir, Aksaray, agus Niğde in An Tuirce. De réir Herodotus,[1] i rith an Ionian Revolt (499 BCE) tuairiscíodh na Cappadocians mar a bhí ag glacadh réigiún ó Mount Taurus go dtí comharsanacht an Euxine (Black Sea). Cappadocia, sa chiall seo, bhí teoranta sa deisceart ag slabhra na Taurus Mountains a scarann sé ó Cilicia, go dtí an oirthear ag an Euphrates uachtarach, go dtí an tuaisceart ag Pontus, agus go dtí an iarthar ag Lycaonia agus Galatia thoir.[2] An t-ainm, a úsáidtear go traidisiúnta i bhfoinsí Críostaí ar fud na staire,[citation needed] leanann in úsáid mar choincheap turasóireachta idirnáisiúnta chun réigiún de iontais nádúrtha eisceachtúla a shainmhíniú, go háirithe a bhfuil saintréithe ag fairy chimneys agus oidhreacht staraíochta agus cultúrtha uathúil.
