Pamukkale at a Glance

Pamukkale, also known as "cotton castle" is a natural site in Denizli Province in south-western Turkey. It is made up of a series of white travertine terraces cascading down a cliff, which is almost 200 metres high. The hard, white mineral deposits, which from a distance resemble snow, are caused by the high mineral content of the natural spring water which runs down the cliff and congregates in warm pools on the terraces. Pamukkale is 2,700 meters long and 160 meters in height and it can be visible even from a distance of 50 kms with a bright white colour. This province has a rich variety of natural, cultural, historical and economical treasures that anyone can spend a great time without hesitation and it is really worth paying a visit to this nice province once a life time at least.

Cotton Castle

For thousands of years a deep underground spring has been pouring out streams of hot, mineral-saturated water. As it has flowed down the mountainside the steaming water has hollowed enormous circular basins in the earth, and the water's rich mineral content has coated them in a smooth layer of dazzlingly-white calcareous rock. It looks as if it's made out of snow or cloud or balls of cotton. This magical and spectacular natural site, unique in the world and with its ancient ruins it is perhaps the most attractive spot for tourists.
