Derinkuyu Underground City

Derinkuyu Underground City

Created in the 7th – 8th century B.C.
Derinkuyu was created as a refuge in times of war and later served as a safe place for Christians facing persecution by the Roman Empire. The walkways are a little small, but the pathways and rooms are well lit and you have plenty of room to move around.
There are numerous ancient multi-level underground cities in Turkey. The complex at Derinkuyu could be closed from the inside with large stone doors and has a total of 13 floors. Each floor could be closed off separately, and the cities were large enough to shelter more than 20,000 thousand people underground together with their livestock and food stores.
