A mysterious underground world located more than 85 meters below the surface of the earth
Another sight of the underground city of Derinkuyu is an archaeological wonder located in the Cappadocia region of Turkey. It is located more than 85 meters below the earth's surface and consists of an eighteen-story tunnel system. Locals discovered one entrance in 1963.

After a more detailed investigation and some digging, a passage of history was discovered, which was followed by about six hundred similar discoveries in other private houses.
Excavations began immediately, revealing traces of an entire civilization below the surface, complete with dwellings, food storage rooms, stables, a school, wine cellars and a chapel.
When the Phrygians attacked them around 1200 BC, the first few levels of the cave system were excavated by the Hittites, and most of the city was later built by the Phrygians. Caves may have originally been used for storing goods, but at the same time they provided shelter from the current residents.
Each level of the city is carefully designed and divided according to specific goals. Each level is closed by a circular rock, which can only be moved from the inside, with a small, perfectly round hole carved in the middle so that intruders can be speared. They used clay pots as latrines, lived by torchlight, designated a place for corpses, and kept animals near the surface to reduce the flow of odors and toxic gases, as well as to provide a layer of bio-insulation. For the colder months.
But the most impressive part of the building is the complex ventilation system and the safety well, which provided fresh air and clean water to the entire city. Thanks to more than fifty ventilation machines, the air flowed naturally to the residential houses and corridors, and the over 55-meter deep well could be closed underneath to prevent enemy access.
Derinkuyu's exact function remains a topic of discussion. It is certain that its construction and use reflect a remarkable social and technical institutional level.
Discovery is like stepping back in time. Visitors walking through the corridors can experience for themselves what life is like in an underground world that is invisible to the naked eye but very mysterious. The secret will capture the imagination of future generations.
