5 Must-Visit Hot Springs Around the World

Pamukkale means "cotton palace," and legend has it that these pools were formed from hardened cotton that was left over by giants.

Whether you believe the local lore or not, the name is fitting for these stunning white travertine pools that cascade down a 650-foot-high cliff in western Turkey. According to scientists, the Pamukkale pools were formed by a mineral-rich spring that overflowed in the second century, cooling and solidifying over time into the remarkable formations you see today. With over a dozen terraced pools perfect for paddling, wading, and swimming, Pamukkale invites visitors to soak in its azure waters at a soothing 95 to 100 degrees Fahrenheit, all while enjoying views of the distant city of Denizli.
