Enjoy a day tour of some of Turkey's finest Roman ruins and see the awe-inspiring Pamukkale (Cotton Castle in Turkish) which owes it name to the beautiful travertines. These are formed when hot calcium-laden waters springs from the earth, flows over cliffs and cools down forming dramatically shaped travertines. You can bathe in the pools as you walk up to the ancient city of Hierapolis.
Explore the impressive ruins of the former Roman spa town of Hierapolis where you'll find the Necropolis - the largest cemetery in Anatolia with approximately 1,200 graves.
