Turkey’s amazing Pamukkale (Cotton Palace) is a truly unique natural wonder that was formed by calcite-laden waters from natural springs located on a cliff face, more than 600 feet above the plains.

As the waters made their way down the steep cliffs they left a series of brilliant white travertine terraces and basins filled with warm azure waters, petrified waterfalls, and unique mineral forests.

Close to this amazing natural wonder you will find a brilliantly preserved man-made wonder, the ruins of the ancient Greco-Roman spa-town of Hierapolis, which include bath-houses, temples, colonnaded streets, and much more.

Come and bathe in the ancient mineral-rich waters at Pamukkale-Hierapolis and admire the remarkable levels of sophistication that existed so long ago.
