I highly recommend watching a sunset from the height of the Pamukkale‘s ancient city of Hierapolis, where people bathed for thousand of years. Getting a feel of the history and the circle of life repeating time and time again in the place is priceless. Hotels were built and demolished there, with no evidence of them to be seen just a few years later. Just like historic sites are covered under the dust of time, some never known of and discovered again, these hotels were a memory of the past for just a few people who had lived there or visited during their short lived glamor. The area became a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the damage they were doing to the bright travertine stone was luckily undone.
My camera fell in the water and I feared all photos were lost. However once it dried out they were salvaged, thankfully, but it provides a great excuse to return for new photos. Not that any excuse is needed to visit such a unique place in the world.
