After being at the thermal baths of Pamukkale we went to Hierapolis a true ancient city perfectly preserved, once you arrive at the entrance hill you find yourself looking at the remains of one of the largest cities of the first Greek and then Roman eras best preserved. You must keep at least a time of 1.30h to be able to walk all the way and visit most of the exhibition.
