We were fortunate to have wonderfully well-informed guides at both Ephesus and Hieropolis who brought the ancient cities alive for us as we wondered around their huge expanses in awe. We also went to the House that Mary is said to have lived in after Christ's death, the Archeology Museum and the stunning ruins of St John's Basilica.

Pamukkale or White Castle was what brought the Romans to build Hieroplis here: thermal waters and brilliant white travertine pools formed naturally by warm water from volcanic activity cascading on the limestone. Stunning! We swam in the old thermal, Roman pool and wandered all over the hill.
Not snow but travertine:
