Hi-Resolution Panorama of Cappadocia near Üçhisar (Turkey)

In the top-right corner, the village of Uchisar and the "Uchisar Castle".

It should be viewed in high-resolution to see the details of the hoodoos (fairy chimneys) and the village of Üçhisar in the upper-right.

The eroded rock formations of Cappadocia look like sandstone, but it is actually volcanic tuff, a type of rock consisting of consolidated volcanic ash that originated from ancient volcanic eruptions in the region.
