During this trip we traveled long distances from one place to next; a second overnight bus from Cappadocia to Kahta a small town in Eastern Turkey. We stopped in Kahta just to be close and be able to take a tour to visit Mountain Nemrut.
Mount Nemrut is at about 50 km from town. The highway to get to the mountain is very narrow, sometimes rough and it is winding up and down the mountains. I was quite scared and worried riding in the minivan. There are many very sharp curves and no shoulders. We made it OK all the way up.
From the parking lot we had to hike about 25 minute to the top where there is a memorial sanctuary. The area is fantastic somehow similar to Utah, I would have loved to trek in this area; it would have been really nice to be there for a few weeks.
Well, I was happy just to visit, do the mini hike and watch a wonderful sunset.
