Hierapolis & Pamukkale - Pamukkale, translating to “cotton castle” in Turkish, is a natural marvel of Turkey, featuring a hillside of white terraces or travertines formed over millennia by minerals from hot springs deep within the earth.
Begin your exploration of the ancient city of Hierapolis, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Unlike other ancient cities, Hierapolis is built on solid limestone layers formed by mineral-rich waters that flowed over this elevated plateau for thousands of years. Named “sacred city” due to its numerous temples, today, the theatre, the Temple of Apollo, and the Necropolis are among Hierapolis’s most notable attractions.
During the tour, visit the Necropolis (Cemetery) of Hierapolis, one of Anatolia’s largest ancient burial sites; a Roman bath, the Gate of Domitian, the main street of the ancient city, the Byzantium Gate, and the Ploutonion. - Pamukkale Thermal Pools - Relish the therapeutic waters of Pamukkale and stroll through the natural warm water terraces, formed by calcium-rich warm water. The water temperature remains around 35 Celsius year-round. Witness the stunning white travertine terraces of Pamukkale, adjacent to the ruins of Hierapolis. This extraordinary effect occurs as the hot spring water deposits minerals while flowing down the slopes, leaving limestone deposits. The white calcium carbonate layers, built up in steps on the plateau, earned the site its name ‘cotton castle’. Opt for a swim in Cleopatra’s antique pool.
- Pamukkale - Savor a local lunch after the tour and explore Turkish traditional handicrafts.
- Kusadasi - Conclude a memorable day with a return to your hotel in Kusadasi or Selcuk around 18:30 - 19:00 pm.
