After our short stay, we finally headed back to Ankara. However, there was one more important stop on the return journey: the world-famous Pamukkale. Pamukkale in particular was once again an ancient city. However, most people know it as the famous white terraces formed by the calcium carbonate-containing water.
Pamukkale – one of the most breathtaking natural wonders in the world – is a place that feels like stepping into a dream. Known as the “Cotton Castle” of Turkey, Pamukkale is famous for its dazzling white terraces, warm thermal pools, and the ancient city of Hierapolis that lies just above. Whether you’re a nature lover, a history enthusiast, or simply someone looking for unforgettable travel moments, a visit to Pamukkale is an experience you will never forget.
