Explore Turkey: Cappadocia

"The history of Cappadocia, whose narratives are full of mysterious sentences, is much more than the known ones, is a combination of civilizations. 60 million years ago, while Erciyes, Güllü Mountain and Hasan Mountain were active volcanoes, the foundations of Cappadocia were laid with the lava they sprayed. From time to time, it has taken its present shape with the erosion of the rains and winds spreading over millions of years. Nature's long labor embroidered the area with fairy chimneys as if it were an embroidery."
