The white pools of Pamukkale

by SirRichard - last update: Nov 11, 2002

A fantastic landscape

Me in the pools
The main reason why people come to Pamukkale is to see and enjoy the white natural pools that have been formed on the hills.
Many people come here in summer, so the best time to enjoy them is at 7 in the morning, when you can walk around alone in silence... wonderful!!
The roman ruins of Hierapolis are another main attraction up the hill.
The group

5 backpackers

I went to Pamukkale by train from Spain (InterRail) with my brother Ignacio.
On the way we found some other backpackers who joined us around Turkey. We had fun. In the photo, from left to right:

 Looks like you had a great time in Pamukkale. I was there last summer and it looks a bit different now - almost no water in the pools.
