Paşabağ is an archaeological site within the UNESCO World Heritage listed Göreme Historical National Park in Cappadocia, Turkey. It's located near the village of Çavuşin. Paşabağ is open daily from 8am to 5pm. Admission is 280₺ (as of August 2023). Tickets are also good for access to the nearby Zelve Open Air Museum. There are plenty of tourist facilities at the entrance including restaurants, cafés, and souvenir shops. Paşabağ has the highest concentration of fairy chimneys in Cappadocia. These unusual rock formations were formed by millions of years of wind and rain eroding away at soft volcanic tuff. This left much harder rock behind and created the mushroom-shaped caps on top. Why are they called fairy chimneys? Local legend tells us the unique shapes were made by fairies who built their homes underneath the rocks.
