KONYA - An underground city was found near Yesilyurt hamlet in Karapinar town of central Konya province.
Sources told A.A correspondent on Saturday that excavations had not been launched in the underground city yet.
The sources said that the underground city was found by the villagers.
A big underground city was found near Oymali and Akoren villages in Karapinar town three years ago and archeological work had been launched.
Experts had seen that those underground cities were similar to those in Cappadocia. It is thought that this second underground city found in Yesilyurt is linked with the Oymali-Akoren underground city.
