Fairy chimneys, Pasabag Valley, Goreme National
Fairy chimneys at Pasabag Valley or Monks Valley, in Goreme National Park, near Goreme, in Nevsehir province, Cappadocia, Central Anatolia, Turkey. The rock formations here were made by erosion of the volcanic tuff created by ash from volcanic eruptions millions of years ago. Some of the chimneys in this valley were carved out to form hermitages for early christian monks. This area forms part of the Goreme National Park and the Rock Sites of Cappadocia UNESCO World Heritage Site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
