While renovating the house in 1963, a resident of Nevsehir province in Anatolia found several rooms leading to a network of tunnels. Experts launched a survey and soon concluded that it was an entire city, the city of Derinkou, home to as many as twenty thousand people! The city is hidden behind a large stone covering the entrance, and each of the floors can be closed that way. The town is about 5,000 years old, and has found interesting objects: hidden chapels, wineries, schools, barns, toilets, and even a plumbing and ventilation system. Experts believe the city was built to save locals during frequent religious conflicts

That is amazing. I would love to walk through there and see it all.
So they think it was built for protection from religious conflicts? But they don’t know for sure? What did they find that would make them think that? Just a curious thought. Interesting post.
Good to see you!! Hope all is well with you.
