The ancient city of Hiearapolis grew over the thermal springs and today provides visitors with a glimpse of the natural gifts of the region and cultural riches that man added to nature. The ancient city, situated kilometres north of Denizli, is justly famous for the buildings and artefacts unearthed during extensive excavations. 13
Hierapolis was best described by Prof. rancesco D’Andria who supervised the archaeological excavations Pamukkale derives its name, which means “Cotton Castle”, from the white travertine deposits formed by thermal springs. However the travellers of 18 th century, looking at the graves scattered along the plain on top of the ridge called it “Pambouk Kalesi” which means the “Castle of Graves”. The outstanding natural scenery also cradles the ruins of Hierapolis of Phrygia, one of the sacred cities of the East. The excavations and restitution work carried out in the recent years have unearthed the traces of one of the famous centres of Asia Minor. Every year more than one million visitors explore the splendour as described by author A. Aristides in his Oration on Rome in the 2 nd century AD. The expression used in the Oration is as follows: ‘ ..., the whole empire is full of gymnasia, fountains, temples, workshops, and schools … cities glisten with radiance and charm, ...’ 14
