History of Goreme


JuteVilla
Former names of the town have been Korama, Matiana, Maccan or Machan, and Avcilar. When Göreme Valley nearby was designated an important tourist destination, a "center" for all tourism in Cappadocia, the name of the town was changed to Göreme for practical reasons.

The Göreme National Park (GöremeMilliParklar in Turkish) was added to the UNESCOWorld Heritage List in 1985
