Rock Window in Cappadocia

Weird rock formation with a window carved into the soft tufa volcanic rock. Uchisar castle (also called the Citadel) visible inside the window frame.Cappadocia has a unique landscape with its rock dwellings and fairy chimneys. In ancient times it was inhabited by hermits and monks who hollowed out the soft volcanic tufa rock to build rock dwellings, rock churches and monasteries. The cliff dwellings are still used as dovecuts (pigeon houses) by the farmers who collect the droppings as fertilizer for orchards and vineyards
