Esentepe Village is located between the Uchisar and Goreme. Esentepe which offers an amazing collection of natural and cultural marvels. In simply strolling through the Esentepe Village you will be surprised at the peculiar ‘fairy chimney’ rocks that were naturally crafted by the elements.
The magnificent landscape around Göreme has been formed from its solidified lava streams, its ash and tuff stone, all dating from the Neocene period. A result of thousands of years of continual erosion makes this area look like a lunar landscape. The fairy chimneys also have a great color variety. There are light and dark colors from white to yellow, pink, grey and black.
Esentepe Village, Cappadocia,
Goreme Esentepe; The panoramic view point of the valleys’ crossroads.
In my opinion, the panoramic viewpoint of Esentepe, Goreme is a tacky, touristic spider web. Tourism agencies regularly visit it while taking customers on excursions around Cappadocia.
Esentepe viewpoint is the best panoramic viewpoint from which to see Goreme Valley.
