Geothermal springs of Pamukkale

Pamukkale, Pamukkale, Hot springs
Turkey, Pamukkale
Pamukkale is a unique natural site containing 17 hot springs with temperatures ranging from 35 to 100 degrees. Water flowing down the mountain forms travertines - small pools with limestone walls. The springs have healing properties, so the flow of tourists in Pamukkale is inexhaustible.

I like it!
I have long dreamed of visiting this place, but I put off the excursion until I was in the Marmaris region. I did not want to spend 6-7 tiring hours of driving from Alanya or Kemer on the road. And now the dream has come true! In August, while relaxing in Marmaris, I still decided on Pamukkale. Moreover, I chose a longer option for two days, which also includes a visit to Ephesus. I admit, I chose based on reviews. I read that tourists like the 2-day option more. We bought a tour from a local Daisy Tour company, so perhaps their program is slightly different from that offered by hotel guides.→

It is better to see once than hear 100 times!
I was in Pammukale at the beginning of September 2015. I went there from Marmaris (with a two-day excursion "Efes-Pammukkale"). Well, how not to visit this famous Turkish landmark of nature, when you are relaxing so close?! I always looked at pictures on the Internet, read about Pammukal and there were already some expectations like - wow! snow-white cotton paradise, etc. snowy mountain on a hill... )) Yes, expectations were justified, I liked everything, but for some reason there was no wild delight.→

Very unusual, but...
The place itself is beyond praise. Now, if they didn’t bring them to all sorts of different shops along the way, and there would be more time left to visit Pamukkale itself. Although the guide claimed that the time spent at the facility is strictly limited. Probably lied. Well, there is also a separate fee for the Cleopatra pool. And crowds of people in it. The guide said that if you dive and open your eyes in the water of the pool, your eyesight will improve. Maybe we overdid it and overdid it, but not only did our eyesight not improve, but it really fell for both of us.→

Beautiful but crowded
We arrived with a group early at 7 am, it was cold. While listening to the story about the Ancient Theater of Hierapolis, it got warmer and we went for a walk along the mountain. On the top platform, be sure to take off your shoes. The water had not yet been released, when we started to descend, the white matte water in the travertines was terribly cold. Feet now and then pricked small pebbles. When we got almost to the bottom, they let warm water down the mountain, it was amazing. It is good that we arrived early, managed to photograph the landscape without people.→

Steam doesn't break bones
A lot has been written about Pamukkale. They even say that if you have not seen this miracle, then you have not been to Turkey. Unfortunately, thanks to the tourists, the cotton castle is not as white as in the photographs from the tourist brochures. So, rather than wiping the white coating off the travertines with your feet, making them gray, it is better to spend time here with greater benefit. I mean Cleopatra's pool. This name was given to it to attract tourists. Cleopatra did not splash in it.→

Cotton fortress - Pamukkale
Pamukkale and the ruins of the city of Hierapolis are included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. There is a saying: "He who has not been to Pamukkale has not seen Turkey. " From the coast of Antalya to Denizli about 300 km. (more than 4 hours by bus through the mountains). These places have been used as a resort area since ancient times, therefore, near Pamukkale and Hierapolis, there are ancient ruins nearby that you can visit. The blue water travertines themselves are beautiful! But, with the exception of a specially designated area for tourists, you cannot walk on travertines, as they are very fragile! But the so-called “Cleopatra’s pool”, that is, the Antique pool (as the name at the entrance suggests), is open for swimming, because Cleopatra has never been here.→

Beautiful but far away.
The natural wonder of Pamukkale is usually the first number to visit in Turkey. It's absolutely deserved. It makes no sense to describe Pamukkale. There are millions of descriptions and photos of this object. Several hundred of the best of them are published on the Turpravda website. But when thinking about buying an excursion, consider two significant drawbacks of this place. 1. Back in the nineties, the springs feeding the travertines were full of water and there were many hundreds of them. There were no restrictions on moving on the rocks.→
