Tourists are returning to Cappadocia to hitch a lift — or catch a glimpse — of the famous hot-air balloons that fly over the picturesque landscape of Turkey.

The tourism industry in the city took a hit in 2013 after three were killed when balloons collided. Several others were hurt and treated for broken bones while the rest had minor injuries.

The accidents resulted in authorities clamping down on the rides.
