TOUR CONCEPT
Explore the Ancient Marvels of Hierapolis
Immerse yourself in history, mystery, and natural beauty with a journey back in time to the enchanting ruins of Hierapolis Our tour promises a seamless experience, starting with the convenience of being picked up directly from your hotel.
We understand that every traveler’s location is unique, which is why we offer flexible departure times tailored to ensure promptness and comfort from the outset. As the day unfolds, you will be transported to the mesmerizing site of Hierapolis, an ancient Greco-Roman city which is seamlessly woven into the tapestry of Phrygia’s South West Anatolia.
The city’s proximity to modern Pamukkale adds a layer of contemporary contrast to the historic splendor you’re about to witness.
Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Hierapolis stands as a testament to the ancient world’s ingenuity and understanding of wellness. Since the 2nd Century B.C.E., its therapeutic hot springs have served as a spa, offering restoration and relaxation to countless generations.
Throughout time, many have sought healing in these waters, with others choosing this tranquil place as their final resting abode. The tour’s itinerary is rich with destinations that will not only educate but also inspire awe.
Traverse the expanses of the vast necropolis, a city of the dead with a profound array of sarcophagi. Walk down the city’s main street, taking in the remnants of gates and well- preserved latrines, vivid reminders of daily life in ancient times.
The cathedral’s ruins echo with the prayers of the faithful, while the grandeur of the theater still whispers with the echoes of drama and entertainment long past. A visit to St. Philip’s tomb adds a dimension of sacred history, and as you marvel at these human-made wonders, the natural spectacle of the hot springs’ calcite-laden cascades will leave you in awe.
The Cotton Castle, with its poetic beauty, is a natural artwork formed over millennia and a crowning feature of Hierapolis. Be prepared for an early departure from Antalya and a late return-the journey is long but rewarding, promising memories that will last a lifetime. The tour to Hierapolis is an enriching escape from the modern world and an indulgence in the pleasures and mysteries of the ancient one.
