Cleopatra Antique Pool

概要

クイックファクト: Submerged Roman columns and marble fragments from an ancient earthquake lie scattered across the bottom of this thermal spring, creating an underwater archaeological site you can actually swim through. The mineral-rich waters stay at a constant 35°C (95°F) year-round, fed by the same geothermal source that created Pamukkale's brilliant white travertine terraces.

見どころ: A 4th-century earthquake toppled the columns of a Roman temple directly into this spring, and they've been soaking in the turquoise thermal waters ever since. You weave between these ancient marble relics while floating in carbonated water that leaves your skin silky smooth.

インサイダーヒント

• Bring a waterproof phone pouch or GoPro to capture photos of the underwater columns without risking your device.
• Wear water shoes with a thick sole as the marble floor can be slippery and uneven beneath the surface.
• Skip the changing rooms if you're already in a swimsuit under your clothes to avoid the long locker queues.
• Visit on a weekday morning to dodge the tour bus crowds that pile in between 11 AM and 3 PM.
