Highlights 3

The last two places are Pasabag and Devrent Valley.



Pasabag

   Highly remarkable earth posts can be seen here.  The shelter of Simeon monks was here.  A chapel dedicated to St. Simeon is built into one of the fairy chimneys with three heads.  Pasabag valley contains some of the most striking fairy chimneys in Cappadocia with twin and triples rock caps. So they are also called Mushroom-shaped fairy chimneys.



 


Devrent Valley

   It does not have cave churches like the other valleys.  Devrent Valley reveals many different rock formations.  The small fairy chimneys form a lunar landscape, or moonscape.  The valley also has many animal shaped rocks.  It looks like a sculpture zoo made by nature.  Some of the most important, or the easiest seen animal shapes are camel, snake, seals, and dolphin.
