Pamukkale

Pamukkale white terraces

When I was doing my Erasmus in Istanbul, Turkey, my friends and I decided to travel to Pamukkale and explore this region. Since there was a very good bus connection, we bought tickets and set off.

The White Limestone Terraces

Pamukkale terraces
A Surreal Landscape

Pamukkale was truly impressive. It consists of a formation of white limestone terraces on which many small natural pools are found. The water was very clear and the whole surroundings looked almost surreal.


At the very top of the hill there is a small oasis where we could rest and relax. After that we also visited some historical sights nearby. Then we traveled back to Istanbul.
