Cotton Palace

Pamukkale is a series of thermal pools full of calcium that cannot be found anywhere else.

The water from the pool spills over the edges and gives the whole landscape a unique cotton look.

White terraces were created due to earthquakes, which are common in this area, which allowed warm water full of calcium to reach the surface.

Before the area was declared a World Heritage Site, it had its ups and downs.

People visited it in vehicles, and many hotels ‘sprouted’ overnight on top of the remains of Hierapolis.

Today, vehicles are banned and hotels have long since been demolished, leaving this amazing location to recover.

People are allowed to swim in the pools, but on the condition that they are barefoot.

This place is a real natural phenomenon - gentle, mineralized water elegantly descends from the spring and creates pools and terraces that are simply spectacular.
