“Kandovan” means beehive and any traveler climbing up the winding paths of the Kandovan cave village will see how the village got its name. Be sure to wear sturdy shoes for walking around this rocky village. In order to truly understand how it feels to dwell in a cave village, several of the cave homes are available for visitors to rent. The two meter thick walls keep cool air flowing in the summer and trap warm air in during the winter, making a stay in a Kandovan cave home perfect for any time of year.
