World Heritage
turkey
🎧 Listen to Introduction
The springs come from cliffs nearly 200 meters high above the plains, and the calcite-rich water creates a dreamlike landscape at Pamukkale (Cotton Palace), consisting of mineral forests, petrified waterfalls, and a series of terraced basins. At the end of the 2nd century BC, the Attalid dynasty of the Pergamon kings founded the Hierapolis Thermal Baths. Remains of baths, temples, and other Greek monuments can be seen on the site.
