Pamukkale |
Pamukkale, meaning
cotton castle in Turkish, drives it's name from
it's physical appearance. Pamukkale lies 19 km
north of the town Denizli and 200 km east of
Kusadasi. The breathtaking white travertines of
Pamukkale have been shaped layer upon layer by
the frozen limewater which poured out from the
nearby thermal springs. The water from the
springs has a temprature of 35 degrees celcius
(90 fahrenheit) and has scientifically proven
positive effect on vascular and heart diseases,
rheumatism, hyper-tension, urethra and kidney
diseases.
The healing waters of Pamukkale, which the roman
kings once came to bathe, now serve local and
international visitors.
Sitting or lying in one of the pools in
Pamukkale and watching the sun set on the
Denizli Plain below, is an extraordinary
feeling. Day time view has it's own essence
