Hierapolis-Pamukkale

The white travertine terraces of Pamukkale stretch over 2,700 meters in length, with mineral-rich waters flowing through multiple levels of limestone formations.

The ancient city of Hierapolis, established in the second century BC, developed around thermal springs that Romans utilized for therapeutic purposes.

The site contains over 1,200 tombs in its necropolis, revealing burial practices from different periods and civilizations that inhabited the region.

The thermal pools maintain temperatures between 35 and 100 degrees Celsius throughout the year, making them accessible for visitors in every season.

The calcium carbonate deposits from the springs create natural terraces that reflect sunlight, producing white formations visible from 20 kilometers away.
