Who's up for a hot shower?
I know i am when i discovered this place~
Here i am going to introduce a place called Pamukkale, a site in Denizli Province, southwestern side of Turkey.
Nice view, right? There's something even better.
Guess what?
The water of Pamukkale is famous for its benefits to the eyes and skin; and its curing properties to the ills of asthma, rheumatism, as well.

Pamukkale, which literally means "cotton-castle" in Turkish, is one of Turkey's top attraction and a precious in the world with its cotton-look terraces.
The dazzling white calcareous castles are formed by limestone-laden thermal springs, creating the unbelievable formation of stalactites, potholes and cataracts.
The underground water once gave life to the ancient city of Hierapolis now helps Pamukkale be one of the most important thermal centers of Turkey.
The waters in the terraces are the sediments of the springs with calcium carbonate in 33C and containing mainly calcium salts and carbon-dioxide, run off the plateau's by depositing calcium carbonate while carbon-dioxide disappearing.
And when the calcium carbonate hardens, it forms travertine. Thus, created the sparkling white castle-like cascades.
