Denizli is located in southwestern Turkey and is known for its alluring thermal waters, ancient cities and unparalleled nature. In the heart of the city, you can get a feel for modern-day Turkish life, or pay a visit to one of the many UNESCO World Heritage SItes it has under its belt. The mineral-rich thermal pools of Pamukkale are a must-see – hot air balloons can even take visitors up for a birds-eye view of this natural phenomenon. Discover fascinating relics of sacred places at the Ancient Cities of Hierapolis and Laodikeia or pay a visit to the Pamukkale Winery – another UNESCO-listed site – for an insight into wine production with wine tasting.

Top three things to do in Denizli

1. Visit the UNESCO thermal pools of Pamukkale

A dreamy landscape of white mineral terraces and staggered pools of turquoise – it’s no surprise this ancient place is known as the ‘cotton castle’. Walk down the milky white cliffs and take in the scenery. Experience the rejuvenating and calming effect of the thermal waters, prized for their healing properties.

2. Delve into the past at the Hierapolis

Discover the Greco-Roman remains at this UNESCO archaeological site including the Roman Theatre, the Temple of Apollo – with its Devil’s Gate passageway to the underworld – and the Necropolis, one of the best-preserved ancient cemeteries in Turkey. Bring your costumes to bathe in Cleopatra's Antique Pool, an oasis surrounded by palms.

3. Step into nature and enjoy outdoor activities

Nature lovers can get their dose of greenery in Denizli City Park, the largest in the city, and the Ornaz Vadisi valley, a local gem. If you head a bit further out of the city, you’ll find Kaklik Cave – known as an ‘underground Pamukkale’ with similar white terraces of thermal pools, but under the surface. It’s a breathtaking spot.
