Pasabag - Also known as Monks Valley, Paşabağ features conical rock formations resembling fairy chimneys, which were used as homes and Orthodox churches by hermits. These fairy chimneys are iconic in Cappadocia and are well-known even to those who haven’t seen them.

Devrent Valley - The name “Devrent Valley” translates to “pit and cliff.” The valley is filled with fascinating views, showcasing natural rock formations that are also known as the Valley of Imagination.
