Hierapolis, located in Pamukkale in the Denizli Province of Türkiye, is a remarkable ancient city known for its unique blend of natural beauty and historical significance. Founded in the 2nd century BCE, it flourished as a Greco-Roman spa city, famous for its thermal waters, which were believed to have healing properties. The city sits atop the stunning white travertine terraces of Pamukkale, formed by mineral-rich hot springs. Visitors can explore well-preserved ruins, including a large Roman theater, ancient baths, temples, and an extensive necropolis. A notable highlight is the Martyrium of St. Philip, a significant Christian site. Today, Hierapolis and Pamukkale together form a UNESCO World Heritage Site, attracting tourists and scholars from around the world.
