Kayaşehir explored through virtual reality headsets
NEVŞEHİR
Visitors unable to pass through the narrow tunnels of the historic rock-carved hillside settlement of Kayaşehir in Nevşehir can now explore the site using virtual reality headsets as part of a municipal accessibility initiative.
The Kayaşehir VR Digital Experience Museum, established by the Nevşehir Municipality, offers an alternative way to experience the historic site for visitors who are unable to tour the area because of its narrow passageways, elevated sections and challenging physical conditions.
The centuries-old settlement, carved into the hillside beneath Nevşehir Castle, consists of living quarters, defense and escape tunnels, rooms, stables and various other sections. Through virtual reality headsets provided at the museum, visitors can digitally explore the site and experience its historical atmosphere.
