Extraordinary Natural Wonders of Turkey E-mail

Pamukkale is one of the extraordinary natural wonders of Turkey.

The great attraction is the white immensity of the cliff with sculptured basins full of
water and congealed waterfalls; they seem done of snow, cloud, cotton...

The scientific explanation is the hot thermal places that lie under the mount
provoke the calcium carbonate spill, that makes the forms as solid as travertino marble. 

One can bath there; the Turks call this place PAMUKKALE, which means "Castle of Cotton". 

It is a protecting landscape that fascinates, as the action of the mineral waters
that contains calcium oxides left fantastic marks in the structures. 

The resultant effect is spectacular: the waters spill on a
series of steps, forming solid cascades and pools. 

As much the cascades of calcium carbonate as the water change color in accordance
with changes of the solar light that illuminates them, and the effect is surprising.

The spectacle is flaring. 

At times white, others blue, or green or other colors.

The continuous dynamics of the erosion and the transformation of
the natural landscape result in an unusual environment. 

PAMUKKALE is one of the most unique phenomena in nature.
