The romance of Kappa is beyond words. Only by visiting it in person can you feel the unreal world and romance. You must go there once in your life with your loved one to witness your love💓
The open-air museum is similar to the Dunhuang Grottoes, complete with murals.
The hot air balloon ride is fantastic!
In the ceramic town, you can try the local specialty—clay pot beef.
In Pigeon Valley and Rose Valley, you can admire volcanic concretions.

Fairy chimneys are one of the landscapes in the northern Goreme National Park in Cappadocia. It is a huge group of strange rocks that are absolutely unique. Fairy chimneys, fairy chimneys, goblin chimneys, large and small chimney-shaped stones suddenly appear, one after another, hitting the eyes! This is a gift from God that Kapazhi is proud of! There are also landforms similar to the moon in the park, which is a wonder of the world!
Good arrangements in the itinerary, the magical landscape created by the ghosts and axes of nature for tens of millions of years, bring your reverie, and leave interesting moments with your camera! The wind blows, the clouds blow, you have also been here!

Amazing work of nature where the entire valley is sculpted by nature into different shapes and sizes. from the Camel, to penguins, a pair of kissing ducks, upside down bear etc. Worth a visit before the landscape changes again over the years.
This canyon is not in the core scenic area of Goreme, but it is a good place for hiking. The Fenghua rocks are not so dense, very picturesque and comfortable. It is very suitable for a lazy walk and it is easy to take pictures.

I personally feel that this is the best attraction in the whole of Turkey. I went there early in the morning the next day after arriving in Goreme. I was the first one to enter the park. There were not many people there the whole time. It felt like I was on an archaeological expedition. The scenery was shocking and the caves were amazing.
After I came back, I was a little confused about the photos I took in several museums, because the basic landforms of the open-air museums in Cappadocia are still the same. It is a very unique place that cannot be seen in other places.
