Our bus arrived in Goreme at around 08:00. Surprisingly the bus went all the way to the village centre, instead of otogar at Nevsehir. Arriving in the area of Cappadocia in early morning felt like waking up on another planet. Cave dwellings here and there. A few tourists and some souvenir shops. Minimal traffic and occasional herds of sheep. But it was the bizarre rock formations, some of which towered straight up to the sky that captured everyone's attention.
We checked in at our hotel Elifstar, another fun of Cappodocia: to stay in cave dwellings. The owner Jacky and her cat were both very friendly. Jacky pulled out a map and showed us various hiking routes around the area, and recommended a lookout spot. It did offer a fine view of the village of Goreme.
