The Cappadocian landscape is legendary as a ‘moon-land’ and ‘unearthly’. But all those brown and other earth tones can start to look all the same after a few days. Breaking the monotony are the vivid colors of the local pottery, one of the other things that Cappadocia is famous for.
If you’re keen, you could even try your hand at a pottery / ceramics workshop in Avanos, the pottery hub of the region – and buy at source, so you’re sure your Cappadocian souvenir isn’t made in China!

Lovely to stumble across your Cappadochia blogpost, and yes we’ve been to Avanos. Scuh a quaint town, by the river, but stunning pottery and plenty of colourful carpets too.

Thanks Veena! We didn’t get to Avanos, but went to another pottery workshop near Goreme – I’m hoping my souvenirs were made locally! 🙂

Thankfully, my budget stopped me from stuffing my bag with more of these than I needed. 🙂
