Cappadocia is an area located in central Anatolia, Turkey and at the same time is bordering with Taurus at south, with the Euphrates at the east, to the west by Lycaonia and with the Black Sea on the north. This place began to form 60 million years ago when volcanic layer of lava and ash covered the mountain and formed rock formations called fairy chimneys. Now it is crowded with beautiful rocks with unusual shapes that will delight at first sight. Various natural forms look like they are the result of human imagination. Inactive volcano is true wonder of the world, which attracts tourists from everywhere.
