One of Hierapolis' most notable features was its famous theater, which could hold thousands of spectators and is still largely preserved today. The city gained recognition as a popular spa and healing destination due to its natural thermal waters and white limestone pools. These mineral-rich waters created impressive natural terraces and waterfalls known as "Pamukkale", which means "cotton castle" in Turkish.

We will pass through Selçuk for a panoramic visit of the city with its rich history, appreciating the Ottoman castle, the Basilica of St. John, and the Temple of Artemis, which has made Ephesus an important religious and cultural center of antiquity.
