Cappadocia
The magical landscape has been well documented throughout history. During the reign of the Roman Emperor Augustus, Straban, a writer of antiquity, described the borders of the Cappadocian region in his 17 volume book Geographika ( Geography-Anatolia X11,X111,X1V) At that time, the area known as Cappadocia extended from the Black Sea coast in the north down to the Taurus Mountains in the south, to Aksaray in the west and Malatya in the east.
