Spread across the slopes of Aktepe in the Avanos district of Nevşehir, Zelve Open-Air Museum is a valley where geological nature and human craft merged. Characterized by high concentrations of fairy chimneys across three natural valleys, Zelve flourished from the 9th century onwards as an early Christian monastic retreat, preserving rock-carved churches, chapels, and dwellings inhabited across centuries.
