Fairy Chimneys
The marvelous Fairy Chimneys of Cappadocia are the creation of erosion and volcanic activity. Cappadocia’s fairy chimneys are not just providing beautiful views but are also evidence of a rich geological, ethnographic and historical development.
From the volcanic eruption which formed these features and the erosion which has helped shape them, through to their significance in the early Christianity period and their current status today as one of the foremost tourist attractions, the fairy chimneys remain a hallmark of Cappadocia.
