Discover Pamukkale's Terrace Pools

Your adventure begins at the famous Pamukkale, aptly nicknamed the 'Cotton Castle' for its gleaming white travertine terraces. These dazzling formations are created by mineral-rich thermal waters cascading down a hillside, creating natural pools that have been relaxing visitors for centuries.
