Ortahisar features a dramatic castle rock similar to Uçhisar and is known for its citrus fruit storage caves. The authentic village atmosphere makes it a peaceful alternative to busier tourist areas.
The castle rock served as both fortress and storage for centuries. The caves maintain constant temperature, ideal for storing lemons and oranges from the Mediterranean coast.
5 km from Göreme towards Ürgüp.
