Early Christians have constructed their rock houses and temples by carving the tufes in the valley of Ihlara through the valley runs the Melendiz riverlet. The waters of the riverlet named Ihlara as Peristrema meaning "The people of circulating waters". To search the source of the water in Ihlara is infact trying to reveal the meaning of life. The waters coming from a spring called 40 Goz penetrate Ihlara town from this dark point, then making love with Melendiz riverlet, it is distributed to the fountains. Stiff and immortal rocks, softly flowing mysterious waters flutterly surging into Tuz lake. While reaching the valley from the south, you'll come across Ihlara town which lies within the boundries of Aksaray, Guzelyurt (Gelveri).
