I have opted to drive from Cirali to Cappadocia and would prefer to split the driving time up between two days and spend a night somewhere along the way. I understand that there is a more direct route as well as other options for more scenic drives. Basically, I want something not overly complicated as I am not the greatest with directions, but to me, adding on a few hours to the drive is worth it for nice scenery.
Please suggest a driving route and stopping point for the night. I know Konya is popular but what about somewhere like Egirdir? Suggestions are welcomed and appreciated!
