📍 About the location

The city of Afyonkarahisar is located as a gateway between the see and the inner regions of Anatolia. The history of the city goes back to 4000BC. The top of the rock in Afyon has been fortified for a long, long time. It was known to the Hittites as Hapanuwa and was later occupied but Phrygians, Lydian, and Persians until it was conquered by Alexander the Great. It is a spa-center with thermal baths and it is famous for specific Turkish delight. There are also some fairy chimneys and thermal foundations which attract many tourists every year, as well as the Mevlevihane (a lodge by Mevlevi dervishes), became a museum recently. The city is a member of Association of Historic Towns in Turkey. The municipality will give you the chance to explore some of these ancient places. The Frig Valley is only an example for you. It will be the exact volunteering project for which you will remember always.
