トルコのルーツ
Cappadocia is a region in central Turkey famous for volcanic rock formations and since the 1990s hot air balloon tourism. Up to 150 balloons launch daily at sunrise.
なぜその名前がドバイに渡ったのか
When Dubai ballooning launched in the mid-2010s, several pilots had trained in Cappadocia. The landscape is completely different but the ballooning craft carried over.
