Famous for its distinctive “fairy chimneys,” towering rock formations sculpted by erosion, this region offers a panorama that is both alien and mesmerizing. The history of human settlement here is just as captivating, with entire cities carved into the rock and underground tunnels revealing the ingenuity of ancient civilizations. The highlight for many visitors is a hot air balloon ride at dawn, where the rising sun illuminates the valleys, casting shadows and light over the surreal landscape. On the ground, the exploration continues with visits to ancient cave churches adorned with frescoes, open-air museums, and the chance to stay in a cave hotel, providing a living connection to the area’s rich history.
