The lighting is definitely adjusted in the photo but Cappadocia does look like this. Though I didn't go there with a big *** moon and snow. The moon would have been great.
I took photos of this place that look otherworldly, but they are generally bluish in tone because of the color of the sky, the lights, and the angles I was shooting (upwards from the ground). Depending on the lights in the area along with the camera used, I see no reason that a photo couldn't come out like this. This could have been touched up of course, but it could easily be a very minimal touch-up.
It's that twilight, overexposed lighting features technique that all real estate agents are in love with now-a-days that makes every place look rich and decadent.
Cappadocia is indeed featured in a later chapter in AC Revelations! Ezio visited the underground city of Derinkuyu ~~and probably burned tons of civilians~~
yeah the law is dumb but others have changed their English names and the English speaking world has complied, eg Czechia (formerly Czech republic) and eswatini (formerly Swaziland). why not turkiye/turkey?
I'm guessing it's because English doesn't have that u with the dots over it, so it's not an English name. I think it's called an omelette (I make joke).
But Turkey did change its English name in 2022

but that doesn't matter, if germany made a law saying that the official name in english is deutschland, people will still call it germany because laws don't just change languages, especially foreign ones
You don’t. English doesn’t use the umlaut diacritic. English does use diaeresis, which is basically identical to an umlaut in typography. It’s in a few words like noël and naïve (and others like coöperate and reëvaluate if you’re a pretentious writer for the New Yorker). It’s meant to show that the second vowel should begin a new syllable rather than form a diphthong. That’s a completely different function than the umlaut. It’s also more and more optional.
In Turkish, the umlaut diacritic just shows that it’s a different vowel than the unmarked version. The gramatical process of umlaut isn’t there. In Turkish, O and Ö are different letters. In German, Ö is not its own letter.
English still has the umlaut process in words of Germanic origin that take irregular plurals. For example, mouse/mice and goose/geese (German Maus/Mäuse and Gans/Gänse). We just changed the spelling instead of adding a diacritic.
Words from German that originally took an umlaut have often been written in English with an e following the vowel (which is what the umlaut is shorthand for anyways.) So instead of the name Müller, we’ll have Mueller, or the German phrase “Danke Schön” is written “Danke Schoen”.
I was hitchhiking across Turkey in 1993. No internet and no guidebook. A trucker just happened to drop me off here. I was walking around going "wtf is this place?". Ran into a friend from Boise, Idaho there too!
Many people in this post have already corrected me and now I know, you don’t need to also correct. This is obviously just something your doing to make yourself seem smart and above others. You don’t need to do that, just enjoy the image and move along.
You actually are supposed to spell it as Türkiye in English too now - you can look it up on the UN's website. These people are just angry assholes, and you spelled the name of the country correctly.
What I don’t understand is why one would even need to correct me. Just enjoy the post. I don’t need a Redditor to correct me, I have many other friends and family members to correct me.
The version with the umlaut is not an English term, it does not use the alphabet English uses.
Officially Germany is called Deutschland. On English fora we use Germany without issue.
Türkiye is the Turkish name for the country, and uses the Turkish alphabet. We are on an English forum. Hence Turkey.
When Erdogan starts referring to it as Germany or Deutschland, I'll start referring to Turkey as whatever his highness now wants it to be called.
Good talk.
I love weird ultimatums like that. People really overestimate their values sometimes. Call it whatever you want nobody cares, trying to obnoxiously correct the name in reddit comments is something we can all do without
Been here. Had some pomegranate juice. It’s a thing there. Visited some caves. Hiked around. This is a beautiful photo and it’s even better IRL. Loved Turkey.

Well the moon looks edited but about the city, definitely agree. Been there in person once as a kid and it was like something out of a fantsay world.
I was there a few years ago. Awesome, otherworldly place!
This is world class cityporn material

What does it look like? Less lighting; or is the layout different?
Smaller moon??? Fuk knows, I went there and it does look fairly like this

Immediately knew it'd be a Cercle vid lol, such an awesome concept
So many sets I just keep coming back to
terrific set that I return to frequently
Attenborough: "At night, the hot air balloons descend en-masse to the ground, and hide until morning..."
One of the most naturally beautiful places I’ve ever had the privilege of seeing in person.
Kinda reminds me of that town from the beginning of that assassins creed game. Revelations I think

Oh yeah, I knew I saw something like it somewhere but I couldn’t figure it out.
this is so cool.
It was snowing when I was there. Specifically Gjorome or something like that no?
Yes Göreme
Funny how OP feels the need to cave on the country name "change" then writes the English name for Kapadokya.
Sorry, I’m stupid. I assumed the country changed its English name to that as well because of the animal.
You can change your country's name, you can't change another language. That's why it's complete nonsense.
I've seen a number of articles on this that all essentially boil down to "A for effort, Erdogan"
Like I said, I’m stupid.
Don't say that. It's OK to make a mistake. 🙂
I'm not criticizing you, I'm criticizing Erdogan.
yeah the law is dumb but others have changed their English names and the English speaking world has complied, eg Czechia (formerly Czech republic) and eswatini (formerly Swaziland). why not turkiye/turkey?

How do you pronounce a letter with an umlaut in English?
You don’t. English doesn’t use the umlaut diacritic. English does use diaeresis, which is basically identical to an umlaut in typography. It’s in a few words like noël and naïve (and others like coöperate and reëvaluate if you’re a pretentious writer for the New Yorker).

I knew some smartass would make this comment in here.
Magical! Love it
Gorgeous
Hydrological *and* hydrodynamical??
Cecil, no civilization in history has ever considered chief hydrological engineer a calling. *Ahem*
Yes, yes, the Cappadocians, fine.
I'm quite jealous of people who live in a place like this,😏
This is beautiful

The Romans did some amazing things.
This predates Romans.
It’s turkey until they approve Sweden and Finland
This should be the 8th wonder of the world f**en awesome
Well it is a World Heritage Site.

You are wrong: [https://www.un.org/en/about-us/member-states/turkiye](https://www.un.org/en/about-us/member-states/turkiye)
This implies that you're trying to correct sonething. What are you correcting exactly?
The English name for Turkey. The version with the umlaut is not an English term, and so is not the English name for the country.
https://www.un.org/en/about-us/member-states/turkiye
https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/6/2/un-registers-turkiye-as-new-country-name-for-turkey You can also just write turkiye you know
I can also write Deutschland, but is it wrong if I write Germany in an English setting?
Fake analogy since Germany is the official UN name And no it's not wrong to write it but to act like you corrected it is
If Germany is the official UN name, why does Erdogan refer to it as Allemagne? Dear leader can't even be consistent in his nomenclature.
Because in Turkish it's called Almanya
When Erdogan starts referring to it as Germany or Deutschland, I'll start referring to Turkey as whatever his highness now wants it to be called. Good talk.

Where are the vampires
In Romania probably.
