This article was interesting!
Have any of you seen this city? I think it is a tourist attraction. But, the history behind this place is fascinating.

Well, it was probably cool in Summer&warm in Winter. A safe place for the early Christians to hide out from the persecuting hordes. And later, in the 1400s, probably the Turks hid from Vlad's forces in those caverns, too!
