Goreme National Park features one of the most unique landscapes in the world. Comprised of spire and cone-shaped formations, the area was shaped by volcanic eruptions millions of years ago. The ash solidified in to a soft rock-like material, which was easily manipulated by both nature and early settlers.
Come visit and check out the moon-like landscape, and the numerous churches, elaborate houses, and humble dwellings carved into the rock. Don’t miss the Open-Air Museum, featuring incredibly intricate monasteries.
