Lisätietoja aktiviteetista

This is not without a reason, for this is the important site of the region. The valley is home to rock churches and monasteries, going back as much as to 2nd century AD, which are richly decorated with colorful frescoes by exiled Christians in Roman era.

The wonders will then continue with the amazing panoramic view that you will enjoy at the natural citadel of Uçhisar. You will witness the poetry, written through the ages on the soft volcanic rock by the no other than the elements of the nature. The wind and the rain have worked together to create a surreal, almost lunar landscape; a scene of pillars and cones and, of course, the unique fairy chimneys.

After having lunch at an authentic restaurant, short walk through out Zelve - Paşabağ where you will find the most interesting fairy chimneys and possible to see the first example of monk’s chapel.
