Pammuklaire

Here's Clarice walking across the travertine terrace at Pammukale. This is the formation created when the mineral rich water loses carbon dioxide and leaves limestone behind. It is quite spectacular, and the massive white limestone terraces are blinding in the bright sun.

Behind this is the ancient ruined city of Hieropolis, which is simply incredible to behold. More on that later.
