Usually where relatively soft rock is topped with harder rock that protects it from erosion. These places are found around the world in Turkey, Taiwan, Canada, the United States and France. You might be interested in the pictures and additional information available in the wikipedia article.

What type of erosion caused hoodoos to form?

The two theories if hoodoo formation (aside from metaphysical reasons) are: * Water eroded and cracked the harder cap rock on the hoodoos to be. The water in the cracks froze and thawed cracking off chips which were washed away. When the rough shape of the hoodoo was formed the cap rock biscuit acted as an umbrella to protect the center of the hoodoo. The outer edges then rounded off with ongoing spalling of rock in cycles of wetting and freexzing. * Sand blown by the wind eroded the hoodoos from soft rock. This is discredited by the lack of a single eroded side to the hoodoos caused by prevailing winds


What type of Weathering caused hoodoos to form?

Hoodoos are formed by both physical and chemical weathering processes. Physical weathering, such as frost wedging and erosion, plays a significant role in shaping hoodoos by breaking down rock into smaller pieces. Chemical weathering, which involves the breakdown of rock through chemical reactions, also contributes to the formation of hoodoos by altering the composition of the rock material.
