Pamukkale (Cotton Castle in Turkish) is a beautiful and spectacular natural site, unique in the world. It consisits of different colors and shapes in the form of terraces with pools, overhanging surfaces and fascinating stalactite formations.

Pamukkale has always been a very popular settlement where the hot springs were believed to have healing powers, so the city became the center of a pagan cult in antiquity. This explains proximity of the ancient city of Hierapolis to Pamukkale. The largest cemetery in the world with more than 1200 graves is worth visiting in Hierapolis.
