Turunc Pamukkale Tour is one of the most popular excursions among our tourists. No wonder they say – “Who has not seen Pamukkale, he has not been to Turkey!” Without a doubt, there is something to see there, because this is a real miracle of nature, which you will not find anywhere else.
The tour program includes a visit to the snow-white travertine pools, the ancient city of Hierapolis, as well as the famous Cleopatra pool.
You will be picked up from your hotel early in the morning and returned in time for dinner. The road from Turunc to Pamukkale will take about three and half hours.
Cotton Castle is a translation from the Turkish name of Pamukkale. “Pamuk” means “cotton”, and “kale” means “castle” or “fortress”. From afar, this creation of nature actually resembles a castle made of cotton or snow.
When you get closer, you will see limestone terraces or travertines. They were formed in the process of deposition of salts contained in mineral waters.
Pamukkale is protected by the state and is also a cultural and natural UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The guide accompanying you will show you the place where it is allowed to walk directly on the travertines with bare feet. Here you can take amazing spectacular photos, as if you are walking on snow in the mountains!
The water in the thermal springs is healing, and has a temperature of about 35 degrees. It contains a large amount of carbon dioxide and calcium carbonate.
Turunc Pamukkale Tour price is 25 Euro for adults, 15 Euro for children from 7 to 11 years old and for children under 6 years old free.
Please note that we have ‘no hidden costs’
No less famous than the travertines themselves, the attraction here is Cleopatra’s pool. It looks like a big antique Jacuzzi with mineral water.
According to legend, the beautiful queen herself prolonged her youth by taking baths here. Optionally, you can swim in it for an additional fee to travel back in time.
In the healing mineral water you will see hundreds of small bubbles. Imagine taking a dip in a champagne bath.
You will float past the ruins of ancient marble slabs and columns, and you can linger on large stones while enjoying the warm water. The maximum depth of the pool is about three meters.
During its long history of existence, Hierapolis was destroyed several times by earthquakes, and each time it rose from the ruins anew. Now you can observe on its territory an ancient amphitheater that could accommodate about 10 thousand spectators, the ruins of the temple of Apollo and other preserved objects.
Also on the territory of Hierapolis, a museum has been opened, where the finds of archaeologists are exhibited, who still continue their work here.
Turunc Pamukkale Tour is a program that we advise everyone to visit. One of the visiting cards of Turkey and the whole world will leave impressions for a lifetime. You will once again see what amazing miraculous miracles exist on our planet. We wish you a great holiday and bright emotions!
