What makes All-inclusive Private Guided Tour of Cappadocia with Hot Air Balloon Option a unique experience ?
If you’re looking for the highest point in Cappadocia, then it’s Uchisar Castle. The fairy chimney was admired for its unique composition and later was shaped to become a natural fortress after losing his head. A climb up the 120 steps to the summit of the castle is an excellent introduction to the mountainous terrain of Cappadocia from where you can see all the valleys of the region.

The museum, which stands out in relief with the increasing number of tourists every year, is visited by more than 1 million people every year and this number is constantly increasing.
Monastic life has been lived here for centuries. The frequency of the dining halls and places of worship in the region, which hosted intense monk life between the 4th and 13th centuries AD, is remarkable. With this form of life, the region became the first point of monastery education system.
Those who come visit Cappadocia mostly go to Pasabag Valley to see the best fairy chimney formations. The formations that once used as a seclusion place for the Monks, are now a very attractive tourist zone in Cappadocia.
One of the best activities in the valley is to enjoy the nature and unique beauties by walking among the fairy chimneys. The valley, which was used as a retreat by the priests and monks during its period, includes many rock-cut monasteries, churches, chapels and settlements, as well as tunnels and mills.
Fairy chimneys, which are formed by the strong wind and precipitation from the slopes of the valley and the flood waters eroding such tuff structures of the region, have a mushroom-like appearance in this region.
