Cappadocia

I visited the area known as Cappadocia in southern central Turkey. It is located between two mountain ranges and three volcanoes, thus is has unique geography. In the first picture there are formations known as "Ferry Chimneys.” The rock is soft enough in the area to carve caves in easily, which people lived in until the middle 20^th century. The last picture is of the Church of St. Simon. I went with 16 other exchange students and we stayed in the city of Goreme.
