Mustafapaşa, 6km to the south of Ürgüp, was inhabited by Greek Orthodox families until the beginning of the 20th century. The houses dating back to the end of the 19th and beginning of the  20th centuries display fine examples of stonework. The Gömede valley, to the west of Mustafapaşa, resambles a small version of the ıhlara valley. As at Ihlara walls of the valley house churches and shelters carved from the rock, and a river runs through the valley.

The important churches and monasteries around Mustafapaşa are, the church of Aios Vasilos, the Church of Constantine- Helene, churches in the Monastery Valley and, the Church of St. Basil in the Gömede Gömede valley.

There is also a caravanserai built during the Ottoman period and displaying fine exampless of stone masonry and woodcraft.

Chapel Of St.Basil
The church is located on the west side of Gömede Valley, about 2 km west of the town of Mustafapaşa. The church has a rectangular plan, two apses, and two naves with flat ceilingand is supported by two columns. On the walls of the west nave are semi-embossed columns decorated with red ochre paint and between them are niches.The nave to the east is decorated with embelishments of geometrical and floral motifs. To the side of this nave, facing the Gömede Valley and the door of which is partly collapsed, is a grave that might have belonged to the donor of the church.

The apse of the eastern nave is decorated with three Maltese Crosses bordered with palm leaves and in each of these the name of a Patriarch is written. The Maltese cross in the center of the three, bearing the names instead of the paintings of the patriarchs, symbolises Abraham and the others Isaac and Jacob. Researchers state that these  Maltese crosses symbolise Heaven or the Three crosses on Golgota Hill.

The big cross on the ceiling, around which are decorations with geometrical and floral motifs, symbolises St. Constantinople  according  to the inscription on the cornice.

Along side these motifs related to the notion of Iconocalism, two important saints, St Basil and St Gregory of Naziansus are decipted on the front of the apse. According to some researchers, the Chapel of St. Basil dates back to the Iconoclastic Period (726-843) or to a later period.
