Fairy Chimneys



These are geomorphological structures created from soft rocks of sedimentary origin. They are commonly found in areas such as deserts, arid areas, dry and hot climate regions and have a very variable size. And there are fairy chimneys that can measure from a few meters to the height of a ten-story building. It all depends on the minerals and rocks that are deposited in it. There are numerous types of rocks and minerals that can be placed in this chimney and that make them vary in color.
