Since we can’t check in yet, we freshen up and left our bags before heading out again.  We walked around Sultanahmet Square and head to Spice Bazaar for some shopping.

After a few hours of shopping, we went back to our hostel to check in, pray, and head out again in the afternoon for Bhosphorus River Cruise. The cruise cost 12TL and it lasted for 1 hour and a half.

It’s good enough right for a bus journey. I know it was better than the bus in Mala ysia.  The bus with entertainment system We arrived at Goreme at 8am in the morning. We went to our accommodation; Yasin’s Place Cave Hotel, freshened up in the common toilet (as we can only check in after 1pm) and left our bags at the hotel. Then we head out to Goreme Open Air Museum, which was about 1.2km away from our hotel. The entrance fee to this place is 15TL.
