Pamukkale

A Turkish natural wonder featuring terraces of mineral-rich thermal waters cascading down white travertine slopes, resembling a cotton castle.

Tips from the community

Folks have been coming to Pamukkale in Southwestern Turkey for its thermal spring water for, well, forever. What makes Pamukkale (the name means Cotton Palace as cotton is grown in the area) remarkable is the travertine terraces that have been formed by the flowing of thermal spring water. While you can no longer step on the travertine terraces at this UNESCO World Heritage Site, you can admire them from a nearby footpath.
