Cappadocia is a unique rock plateau, a highlight of Turkish tourism. It was formed 60 million years ago by erosion of layers of lava and soft ash from Mount Erciyes (Argeus), Mount Hasan and Mount Güllü combined with wind and rain over millions of years. More interestingly, this area is also carved into an extremely sophisticated housing system. It can be said that this is a unique destination in the world.
If you are still skeptical about the surreal moments of Cappadocia that often appear on the Internet, now you can rest assured that this "dream" is real. Because all the moments that the Amazing Tour team recorded in this place are even beyond the descriptions or photos you have ever seen.
If you are a fan of taking portraits against this wonderful landscape, the photos of Miss Phuong Nga will show you how this wonder is actually worth visiting. It is not an exaggeration to describe the Miss in her brocade-patterned outfit as a princess from a Persian fairy tale.
And certainly, Cappadocia will always be on the wishlist of all photography and exploration lovers. Veteran photographers such as Le The Thang, Hoa Huy Ngo (hachi8), Bao Khanh, Hoang Hai Thinh, Ngo Tran Hai An (Quy Coc Tu) or hot travel bloggers Ly Thanh Co and Hoang Le Giang cannot stop themselves from taking photos when they directly experience this unique place.
Not only standing behind the lens, Hachi8 excitedly checked in at Cappadocia to capture memories of this special place.
The familiar image of a hot air balloon immediately caught the eye when the group arrived in Cappadocia.
Travel Blogger Ly Thanh Co could not hide his excitement when setting foot in the dream destination of many travel enthusiasts.
If you had to describe the landscape of Cappadocia, it would be that it looks like you are on the surface of the moon. The colors of the stone pillars blend with the sunrise and sunset, making the landscape extremely surreal. You may never get the chance to visit another planet, but a visit to Cappadocia will make you forget that you are living and existing on Earth.

"It feels great to weave through the mushroom forest and hundreds of hot air balloons of all kinds to enjoy the early morning rays. A memorable experience!", Youtuber Hachi88 excitedly shared on his personal page.
With its majestic scenery, the hot air balloon experience here is considered the most beautiful along with Egypt and Bagan. The cost of one flight is 210 dollars and only nearly half of the days of the year can fly due to the climate. Yes, although it sounds expensive, Cappadocia is considered one of the cheapest places in the world to experience hot air ballooning. But it must be affirmed that the experiences that Cappadonia brings are not inferior, even surpassing other places.

Some of the team members shared that waking up early is something they rarely do, but to fully enjoy the beautiful scenery of Cappadocia, they proactively woke up very early. It was amazing to see the colors change from orange to beige and the sky decorated with hundreds of hot air balloons! The sight was magical enough to make anyone forget the real world they were living in.
To give a little history, human settlement in the Cappadocia region dates back to the Paleolithic era. The lands where the Hittites lived were one of the most important centers of Christianity in later times. Houses and churches carved into the caves and rocks made the area a vast haven for Christians escaping the domination of the Roman Empire.
Hot air ballooning is the best way to see the whole of Cappadocia and you should definitely not miss it. Every day at sunrise, hundreds of balloons rise over the town of Göreme, against the golden stone background, creating a poetic scene that seems beyond words.
