A town in Nev\u015fehir Province, Cappadocia, 8 km north of Goreme<\/strong><\/a>, known for being a center of Red Clay Pottery, and for its beautiful cobbled old town overlooking the Kisilirmak river the source of the Red Clay.

Visit the G\u00fcray Museum, an underground cave museum home to antiques, ceramics, and pottery.<\/p>\n

Visit the vast multi floor underground city of Ozkonak <\/strong>15 km north of Avanos, which was home to up to 60,000 people.
\nUnlike the underground cities of Derinkuyu<\/strong><\/a> et Kaymakli<\/strong><\/a>, Ozkonak had very long and narrow holes between the floors, used for communication and ventilation when the city was sealed against invasion.
\nVisitez Saruhan Kervansaray <\/strong>6 km east of Avanos, the restorated historical road Inn built with local colored stones in the 13e<\/sup> century by the Anatolian Seljuks, on the Silk Road leading from China to Turkey and Europe.

Another Seljuk Road Inn presenting magnificent architecture, with similar features as the Saruhan Kervansaray<\/strong>, is the Agz\u0131karahan<\/strong> Kervansaray<\/strong> in the A\u011fz\u0131karahan village, <\/strong>near Aksaray, north of Selime<\/strong> et Ihlara valley<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
