PAMUKKALE IS UNREAL… But you MUST do this!

We woke up at 5:30AM to beat the crowds — and it was worth it. In this travel vlog, we explore the surreal white travertine terraces of Pamukkale, Turkey, and had the place to ourselves at sunrise. After experiencing the otherworldly thermal pools, we walk through the ancient ruins of Hierapolis, one of the most fascinating Roman sites in the country.

Later, we explore the nearby Red Springs (Kirmizi Su) and visit Kaklik Cave — often called the "underground Pamukkale" for its unique limestone formations and underground pools.

If you’re backpacking Turkey or planning a trip to see Pamukkale, this video shows you exactly what to expect — and why it’s 100% worth the early start.
