Avanos is known as the pottery center of Cappadocia, shaped by the rich red clay carried by the Kızılırmak River for thousands of years. In local pottery workshops, visitors can observe traditional crafting techniques and even try forming their own pottery pieces under the guidance of skilled artisans. The clay used in these workshops is completely natural and shaped using methods passed down through generations. During the visit, you can witness wheel throwing demonstrations, learn about the cultural significance of pottery and explore the craftsmanship behind each piece. Handcrafted vases, pitchers, plates and decorative objects can also be viewed and purchased. Suitable for both adults and children, Avanos pottery experiences offer a memorable and interactive cultural activity.
