Pamukkale Reopens

Golden light spreads like silk over the white terraces, and the hot spring pools emit a pale blue, like clouds from the sky falling to earth. Mornings are quiet with few people, and the golden glow at sunset is the most photogenic. The spring water beneath your feet carries warmth, while the distant mountains remain silent, making it hard to tell if you are on earth or in the sky. Pamukkale means "Cotton Castle" in Turkish, famous for its snow-white terraces formed by travertine deposits. Since Roman times, it has been a sacred place for thermal therapy, coexisting with the ancient city of Hierapolis. Today, it is listed as a World Heritage Site, a masterpiece of nature and a testament to human civilization.
