Kapadokya – a continental climate with 1000 m above sea level, rivers, the plateau devoid of vegetation. Cappadocia has a unique geology. Her structure of the soil with deep cracks and dips were important and significant during the formation of mountains. Conflict of two opposing forces occured during Cenozoic about 65-62000000 years ago.
Volcanoes rising to the surface, so there was a line of new volcanoes became a Magma. These explosions peaked activity (approx. 70 million years ago) and occurred in the late Miocene period. Lava ground dips, hills and valleys downstream, it covers the region and gives a view of the plateau. So extinct volcanoes, lava flows and cones had hills pyrite gray ash and debris deposits pressed.
