Pamukkale

Pamukkale, Türkiye’nin güneybatısında yer alan doğal bir oluşumdur. Bin yıllık süreçte travertenler, kaplıcalar ve karbonat mineralleriyle oluşmuştur. Yüzyıllardır insanlar Pamukkale’deki kaplıcalara girmektedir. Hierapolis antik kenti buraya inşaa edilmiştir ve bunun da üzerinde birkaç otel ve dinlenme tesisi yapılmıştır. UNESCO, Pamukkale’yi Dünya Mirasları arasına aldığında, oteller yıkılmış ve böylece doğal yapı koruma altına alınmıştır.

Pamukkale’ye giden turistler kaplıcalarda ayakkabı giymenin yasak olduğunu bilmelidirler çünkü kaplıcaları oluşturan doğal mineral kaynaklar korunmaya çalışılmaktadır. Burada sıcaklıkları 95-212 derece Fahrenhayt arasında değişen on yedi adet kaplıca yer almaktadır. Yüksek sıcaklıkla birleşen yüksek düzeydeki kalsiyum karbonatlar, Pamukkale’yi oluşturan mineral kaynağını oluşturmuştur. Kaplıcalar, suyu ısıtan bir yer altı volkanı sayesinde sıcaklığını korur.

Kaplıcalara ek olarak turistler, geçmişte yaşayan insanların bu kaplıcaları kaç zaman önce kullandığını hatırlatan Pamukkale’deki tapınakların kalıntılarını ve Yunan anıtlarını görebilirler. Tarihçiler, Hierapolis’teki kaplıcaların M.Ö. 2’inci yüzyılda oluştuğuna inanmaktadır. Rahatlamanın yanı sıra bu termal havuzlar, aynı zamanda dini törenler ve ibadetlerin bir parçası olarak hidroterapi için kullanılmıştır.

Pamukkale

Pamukkale, or the Cotton Castle, is a natural formation that lies in the southwestern part of Turkey.

It was formed over millennia by travertine, hot springs, and carbonate minerals.

For centuries, people have enjoyed taking soaking in the hot springs at Pamukkale.

The ancient city of Hierapolis was built on top of the formation, and then several hotels and resorts were built on top of it.

When UNESCO declared Pamukkale to be a World Heritage Site, the hotels there were demolished so that the natural formation could be preserved.

Tourists who go to Pamukkale should know that wearing shoes in the springs is prohibited because they are trying to protect the natural mineral deposits that created the formation.

In all there are 17 hot springs with varying temperatures between 95 degrees up to 212 degrees Fahrenheit.

The high temperatures combined with the high levels of calcium carbonate that are present result in the deposit of the minerals that have created Pamukkale.

The hot springs are kept warm by an underground volcano that heats the water.

In addition to the hot springs themselves, tourists can also see the ruins of the temples and Greek monuments at Pamukkale, which are reminders of just how long ago people were going to these hot springs.

Historians believe that the thermal spa at Hierapolis was first set up in the second century B.C.

In addition to relaxation, the thermal pools were also used for hydrotherapy as part of many religious ceremonies and cult practices.
