Pamukkale, meaning `cotton castle` in Turkish, is a natural wonder famous not only for the entrancing beauty of its unique geological formations but also for its historical remains. The calcium oxide-rich waters flowing down the southern slope of Caldag located north of the ruins have, over the millennia, built up deposits of white travertine on the plateau, thus the name of Pamukkale. As a matter of fact, these waters are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Moreover, Pamukkale`s ancient name was Hierapolis (Holy City), and the well-preserved ancient theater of Hierapolis offers magnificent view of the plain below.
