Pamukkale

Pamukkale ("Cotton Castle") is renowned for its cascading white travertine terraces filled with warm, mineral-rich pools, set directly beside the sprawling Roman-era ruins of Hierapolis, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The result is a rare pairing of a striking natural mineral landscape with ancient theatre, necropolis and bathhouse ruins in a single walkable site.
