What our travelers think about their stay
A famous geological site in Turkey, Pamukkale ressembles a "cotton castle", the meaning of its name in Turkish.

Remember to take your swimwear so you can have a soak in the hot, thermal waters at Pamukkake. It's an amazing experience that you'll never forget.

There are lots of restaurants and cafes in Pamukkale village which is just below, although it's not very interesting apart from that.
