The old "Zelve Village" is 5 km from Avanos and 1 km from Pasabağları.At the same time, these are the areas where fairy chimneys are most concentrated in our region, and the Zelve ruins are surrounded by three different valleys.

This magical area became an important religious center and settlement for Christians in the nineteenth and thirteenth centuries..In addition, it is possible to see different forms and shades of fairy chimneys in the Pashabağl October Open-Air Museum.It is also possible to find a chapel made in the name of St. Simeon and some places carved into the rocks.
