A lost city and what could have been

In 1963, a man in Cappadocia, Turkey was doing some renovations in his house when  he took  swing at a wall with his sledgehammer and inadvertently opened a tunnel, one of many that led to the ancient city of Derinkuyu. This was an entire city carved underground that was  utilized in the 12^th century and periodically up until early 19^th century. It had 18 levels in all and had churches, residences, a school and pretty much anything else that contributed to the running of a city. It was designed to house 20,000 people as well as livestock. It had vents to the surface and a number of other discreet tunnel entrances so it’s quite amazing that it remained a secret for so long. The man doing the renovating was probably so gobsmacked that he made a critical error in announcing his discovery to the powers that be as it became a well known attraction and these days a large portion of the city is open to the public. What he should have done was keep it to himself and tell his mates about it and set up the mancave to end all mancaves.  It is clear from the photos that there is massive potential that isn’t being expoited properly.

An ancient scan of the city in its prime. The bloke who discovered this should have been tight lipped about it and started subletting space for fellow men, thus creating a “Mancave city” if you will.

Nice long tunnels devoid of stressfull noise and distracting elements that melt your senses into that of a blissful and excited state of awareness in preparation for your quality alone time ahead. Have a great time bro, you earned it.

Men walking in every direction to their respective sanctuaries giving a friendly and knowing nod of the head towards each other. “Don’t forget the general meeting on wednesday about updating the WIFI hub, also Room 52 said to let you know that the new batch is ready”

“Ok thanks mate”

A slight problem could arise when navigating your way back up if you had a few too many cans……
