Also known as the Imaginary Valley (or Valley of Imagination), the Devrent Valley lies between the Zelve Open Air Museum and the cities of Avanos, Göreme and Ürgüp. One of the most intriguing places to visit in Cappadocia, this valley is characterised by its unique landscape, shaped by erosion over thousands of years.
Unlike the other valleys of Cappadocia, the Devrent valley has few cave dwellings or rock churches. On the contrary, like the Amur Valley, the majority of the valley is made up of natural rock formations known as fairy chimneys. It is also famous for its camel-shaped rock, naturally sculpted by the elements. Whether in daylight or at sunset, when the panorama is bathed in a thousand colours, the Devrent valley leaves much to the imagination.
