It is generally believed that Apollo, the Greek god of healing, music, light, and truth, built the ancient city of Hierapolis. The ancients revered these mineral springs in this ancient Roman metropolis, known for its mineral springs.
The ancient city is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a popular tourist attraction in Turkey today. The site is recognized for its Sacred Pool, spectacular white terraces of Pamukkale, a fascinating museum, and the classical ruins.
The city of Hierapolis is said to have been founded by King Eumenes II of Pergamum (197-159 BC). Around 300 BC, the Seleucid kings have established the city. The Lycus River Valley was home to three towns by Hierapolis, Colossae and Laodicea. Since ancient times, the town has been well-known for its textiles, wool, purple dye, and therapeutic hot springs. Bathing in the mineral-rich waters of this location has been used to cure a variety of illnesses since ancient times. The city was established during the fifth century BC. By the 6th century, the town had been submerged underwater, and travertine deposits had accumulated. The town was eventually depopulated after an earthquake in 1334 destroyed what remained. Excavations carried out in the 1800s unveiled a hidden past to modern eyes.
After hiking through the rainforest to arrive in Hierapolis, you may visit the gleaming white travertine terraces of Pamukkale. A tiny yet fascinating Pamukkale Museum is undoubtedly a worthwhile visit. The Roman period saw the most development at Hierapolis.
