As of today, in season now. Earth Exhibit tracks the live conditions and flags it the moment it is on.
Pamukkale’s white “cotton castle” terraces are active travertine formations created by mineral-rich thermal waters depositing calcium carbonate as they flow downhill.
The terraces and the adjacent ancient city of Hierapolis form a UNESCO World Heritage landscape that is managed to protect ongoing deposition while allowing visitor access.
