It's 530 km (330 miles) between Pamukkale and Cappadocia, a drive of seven or eight hours.

There are no direct flights or trains, so you'll probably go by bus or car.

By Bus
You may find a direct bus all the way from Nevsehir (Cappadocia) to Denizli (for Pamukkale) or vice-versa, but it's also possible you'll have to change buses in Konya—not a big problem, but it adds some time to your trip.

If you plan to spend a night in Konya or Pamukkale along the way, you may have direct buses for both segments of your journey (that is, Pamukkale to Konya, and Konya to Cappadocia).

By Car
It's 306 km (190 miles) east from Pamukkale to Konya through Turkey's lake country, a drive of about 5 hours.

Stop at Egirdir (eh-YEER-deer) for lunch, and enjoy the scenery around the lake of the same name.

Stay the night at Konya to see its great Seljuk Turkish buildings (especially the Mevlana [Rumi] Museum), then continue along the ancient Silk Road via Sultanhani to Nevsehir, Cappadocia (221 km, 137 miles, 3 hours) on the next day.
