The unique landforms of Cappadocia, Uchisar Fortress, Pigeon Valley, Love Valley, and the underground city.

Today we came to Cappadocia, which is a place that uses landforms to another dimension. It is said to be one of the top ten beautiful sceneries on the earth! It is the place that looks most like the moon... The most impressive thing is Uchisar Castle - the highest point in Cappadocia. Cappadocia was once rated as one of the top ten beautiful sceneries on the earth by National Geographic magazine in the United States. It is the place that looks most like the moon's surface in the legend, and it is also the inspiration for the movie Star Wars. Uchisar Castle is not a castle in the traditional sense, but it is carved out of a huge rock more than 60 meters high, forming a huge community, which has a history of thousands of years! It was a refuge during the Byzantine period and a military fortress of the Ottoman Empire. There are countless holes on the giant rock. When foreign enemies invade, the water and food stored in the cave are enough for people to hide for several months without going out. Here is the most worthwhile place to go in Cappadocia in my heart. Nature lovers are ecstatic! Explore various hidden and transparent caves along the way, and marvel at the wisdom and courage of ancient people along the way. After reaching the top, the magical landforms are unobstructed, as if standing in the center of the moon. Behind the castle is more like a fairy tale magic world, the famous stone stalactite cave elf chimney is there, it is not real, very cool! I personally think it is very worthwhile to spend half a day, climb to the top to overlook, and take a look at the millennium. Overlooking Love Valley also impressed me. The entire valley is full of mushroom-shaped boulders. It is said that the shape was blown out by the wind for thousands of years. This peculiar landform is really amazing...
