White Valley, Rock formation valley in Cappadocia, Turkey

The White Valley contains numerous geological formations created from white and beige colored rocks that form natural tunnels and arches throughout the landscape.

Ancient civilizations, including the Hittites from the 18th century BC, carved homes and structures into the soft tufa rock of this Cappadocian valley.

The valley walls contain multiple cave churches decorated with detailed frescoes, representing the religious practices of early Christian communities in the region.

Visitors can access multiple hiking trails throughout the valley, with the spring and fall seasons offering the most favorable conditions for exploration.

The geological composition of white rocks creates a strong visual contrast with surrounding valleys, while providing habitats for diverse wildlife species.
