These terraces are formed by mineral-rich thermal waters that flow down the hillside, creating stunning white travertine pools. This breathtaking sight is complemented by the ancient ruins of Hierapolis, an ancient spa city that sits atop this geological marvel. Visitors can explore the remnants of this Greco-Roman city, including a well-preserved theatre, a necropolis, and various temples, offering a fascinating glimpse into the past where history and natural beauty intertwine seamlessly. The opportunity to bathe in the same thermal pools that have been used since antiquity adds a layer of historical enchantment to the experience, making Pamukkale a unique blend of natural wonder and archaeological treasure.
