Description

Welcome to Turunc Pamukkale  Tours  a world of cascading calcium terraces. This natural phenomenon stretches as far as the eye can see. You may think you are in the middle of a winter wonderland, but you won’t find any snow here!

No matter how well traveled you are or how many natural wonders you have experienced previously, nothing can prepare you for this stunning sight.

The so-called “Cotton Castle” is as unique a site as you will ever come across in the world. The ever-flowing natural spring waters cascading down the hill contain mainly calcium. When calcium goes into reaction with carbon dioxide, it results in chalk, which forms the famous travertines. These are of different colors and shapes in the form of terraces with pools, overhanging surfaces and fascinating stalactite formations.

The waters are good for skin diseases, allergies, high blood pressure and arteocleorosis. The “castle”, being a perfect work of Mother Nature, stands upright on the brink of the ruined city called “Hierapolis”. The ancient city, dating back to 2000 B.C., is an enchanting view turning back the long forgotten wheels of time, dragging you into another haunting world. If you have the chance, you should not miss the experience, the thrill and the magic of the day.
