@blunklaura They're formed by erosion. There's a deep layer of soft volcanic rock overlayed by a much thinner harder layer. As the hillsides erode in the rain, the ravines form. Where a piece of the harder rock remains, it acts as a "roof," keeping the rain from eroding the rock below it. So as the erosion continues on the bank behind it, it's left behind as a tower. The process is still underway.
@aweinsto You are an idiot. Turkey has its problems but is in no way comparable to Iran. North Korea? That's just a bizarre thing to say. And it's one of the safest places you can travel.

Were these formed by volcanic eruptions and magma flow/cooling then?
They're spectacular.
