    In Turkiye, in every city, even in small villages you will find bits of history. Göreme is also one of my favorite places, after Mardin, Urfa and Istanbul.

    Hi Gabriel, you know that there are other remarkable locations like Cappadocia the Badlands South Dakota and in Canada, In Argentina Valle de la Luna. In California, the Pinnacles National Park and in Makoshika State Park in Montana, Hell's Half-acre in Wyoming in Las Médulas, Spain, and of course Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona. The landscapes are similar but what they have in common is the incredible natural rock formations all unique in their own way.

  • @konstantinosstamatopoulos425

    Good , I saw from insta that you are in Sifnos and in Kastro, you followed my advice! I have a summer house in Sifnos and I know well the island. Then you did the beautiful walk from Faros to Chrisopigi, and stopped at the old mines, I forgot to mention. Hope you did the walk all the way to Chrisopigi. Also from Kastro a nice walk along the sea is at Poulati church. Hope you make and post a video from Sifnos!

    Honest feedback here, Gabe, from a long time fan:
    I think you need to get out of the Mediterranean fast if you want to boost your views. It’s been way too samey recently. More USA. More Asia. Or more lesser know places like that trip you did in Bulgaria.

    When I went to Mazi there were no lights or anything it was pitch black inside. There was a caretaker who would give everyone a flashlight and then show you around inside. The city is huge and the part you saw is maybe 5 or 10 percent of it. There are a couple levels above where you were and also few more levels down. The city is spread out all through the plateau. I used to live in Goreme and went to Mazi many times. Once we were lucky enough to convince the caretaker to show us the parts of the underground city that is usually closed to tourists. We were crawling through dirt and tunnels and would have never made it out without the caretaker and it was amazing. There are also some Hittite tombs in the cliff to the left of the entrance to the underground city. Also, there is 30 meter high Hittite burial mound a few kilometers downriver from Avanos. The "Red" river is the longest river entirely within Turkiye.

      @@GabrielTravelerVideos Basically 64 miles apart.. I think only difference mostly is paintings in Ellora caves. They are spectacular. Mumbai would be entry to country then a bus out to the caves nearby town. Lighting is slightly bad... they have lanterns they give you to help with.. no flashes allowed but videography is allowed. Worried about lighting!

      Gabriels interest lies mainly in Europe especially Eastern Europe and India. South America, Africa and Australia, and a good part of Asia he has barely touched probably because of security and budget issues. Then again there are many other channels that cover these places. Considering he has been at it for 13 years with over 2000 videos to his credit, his viewer base of 560k is quite low. People tend to gravitate to channels with more excitement and humor,
