May 19, 2022,Pamukkale - Hierapolis
We drove 4.5 hours, through all kinds of weather, and then came to visit this in the rain and cold. Something that not only we were not fully equipped for.

A place that every traveler vacationing in Turkey should not miss a detour here.

Pamukkale at sunrise and snow in the nearby mountains.
Absolutely worth seeing the sinter terraces, the theater and the largest necropolis of antiquity. This includes the Church of the Apostle Philip and the Plutonium.

Truly splendid site that combines naturalistic and archaeological beauties.
