Pamukkale Attracts More Than 250.000 Visitors Since Early 2021

One of the most important features of tourism in Pamukkale is the white snow-like fantastic painting, resulting from thermal water sources, called “the white heaven”.

It got its name due to the white colour resulting from lime deposits mixed with snow in winter to form, with hot water steam, a unique painting.

Pamukkale, one of the most beautiful and unique tourist spots in Turkey, is located in Denizli, spreading on vast areas between Anatolia and the Aegean Sea regions.

Pamukkale has hosted more than 250.158 visitors during the first six months of 2021, achieving a 50% increase compared to the same period in 2020.
