Alice, in Wonderland
My new favourite place. Firstly for the pool at the hotel with the 'white castle' in the background.
Secondly for the white castle itself. Pamukkale is a limestone formation with travertines (pools) with aquamarine coloured water. The water cascades down the travertine, over the edges and collects in the pools. The water is warm as it comes from a natural spring. You have to walk down in barefeet to preserve the whiteness of the rocks and makes it easy to walk down. It is one of the most beautiful things I have seen.
At the top there is the ancient town of Hieropolis, what used to be a spa town in Roman times.
