Discovery of Travertine terraces and Hierapolis. The travertine terraces at Pamukkale are one of the most spectacular natural wonders we ever have seen from various mineral springs in a vast white cliff side, about 200 m overlooking the plain, calcite-laden waters have dripped down over a series of terraced levels and created a fairyland of bizarre solidified cascades and shell-shaped basins. It looks like creations from snow or like balls from cotton, which gave the scenery the Turkish name Pamukkale (cotton castle): Moreover the water in the basins is changing its color according to how the light enters. After our visits in Hierapolis , Drive back to your hotel in Kusadasi or in Selcuk
  • Kusadasi - Pergamum - Kusadasi or to Izmir Airport 08.30 a.m. After breakfast, pick up from hotel and departure for Pergamum. Pergamum, actually called Bergama is one of the sites of the Seven Churches of Asia [Rev. 1:11; 2:12]. Here we explore the impressive Acropolis, the steepest theatre in the world, see the Altar of Zeus which is mentioned as the «Throne of Satan» in the book of Revelation, the marble columns of the Temple of Trajan and the Library which was foremost in the world and was long a rival of the equally famous Library of Alexandria in Egypt. Its wealth of volumes was estimated at over 200,000. It inspired the invention of parchment. After the Acropolis, we will continue with the Asklepion, famous medical centre of classical times. At the base of Pergamon Acropolis, there was a healing complex built in the 4th century BC in honor of Asclepius, the God of Healing. With its advanced architectural layout and the treatment methods employed, it earned the title of the most important healing center in western Anatolia. Remains of Asklepion's surviving ruins belong to the arrangements promoted by the Roman Emperor Hadrian in the 2nd century AD.
