Pigeon Valley

Stretching between Göreme and Uçhisar, Pigeon Valley is one of Cappadocia’s most scenic and historically rich valleys.The valley gets its name from the hundreds of pigeon houses carved into the soft volcanic rock by local farmers centuries ago. These pigeons were once essential to life in Cappadocia — their droppings were used as fertilizer, and they served as messengers across villages.Today, the valley offers a peaceful walking trail, dramatic viewpoints, and panoramic scenes of fairy chimneys and lush surroundings.A perfect blend of nature, history, and culture — with unforgettable views of Uçhisar Castle in the distance.

Fairy Chimneys

Discover one of Cappadocia’s most surreal and photogenic landscapes at Paşabağ, also known as Monks Valley.Famous for its unique fairy chimneys with multiple “hats”, this valley offers some of the finest examples of nature’s artistry — tall rock columns formed by wind and volcanic erosion over millions of years. The site gets its name from the hermit monks who once lived in carved-out cells high within these formations. One of the most famous is the chapel dedicated to St. Simeon, built into a three-headed fairy chimney.With walking paths winding between these whimsical formations, Paşabağ is a perfect stop for those who love landscape photography, geology, and Cappadocia’s mystical energy.Ideal for stunning photos, peaceful walks, and a glimpse into the region’s spiritual past.
