Hi @Sinan-İstanbul thanks for sharing, can you explain what these are?

[Sinan-İstanbul]

In the Cappadocia region in turkey, mostly Erciyes Mountain(from Kayseri region), followed by Hasandagi and Golludag formed the fairy chimneys at the Cappadocia. These mountains were active volcanic mountains in the geological ages millions years ago. The journey that started with the explosion of these mountains still continues today with struggle of wind and rain waters’ erosion. Flood waters coming all the way down from the valley hillsides and winds corroded the artifacts so called “fairy chimneys” that has been formed by tuffs. After this natural event, fairy chimneys have been formed up. Flood waters creating their own ways caused cracking of hard rocks and breaking off.

And I was here the Cappadocia week ago, and that capture from fairy chimneys by me(photography: sinan bilen)

Hi @Sinan-İstanbul, 

Thank you for sharing these stunning landscape from your Country. I think we should plan a second trip to Turkey, what do you think @sonnyNg and @FelipePK ?

Hi @Sinan-İstanbul,

That would be amazing and I'm totally in @Sorbe. It seems that there's not only the balloons in Cappadocia to see. What else would you recommend us to see?
