Turkey’s Cappadocia region is extremely an exclusive for its beautiful
nature and history. The Fairy Chimney also called tufa rock cones are
located in a region once known as Cappadocia, which ran through the
historic Silk Road trading route. The ancient civilization shows the
sings how they carved out towers of rock, give way to homes thousands of
years old but still decorated with original frisks. The fairy chimneys
are result of a geologic process that started millions of years ago,
when sculpted by wind, flood water, and volcanic eruptions rained ash
across eventually hardened into stuff, a porous rock, covered by a layer
of basalt. Ultimately, the lengthy work of erosion instigated, the
softer tuff wore down, giving way to pillars, stand as tall as 130 feet. Source: CP
