Parmukkale natural mineral spring
Parmukkale has been a place for healing since probably before the Greek period. There is a large city that is being excavated. The mineral rich hot water created travertine pools and steps over time. For a while hotel sucked most of the water up for their own use. It is now a UNESCO site and those hotels are gone. The water flow is managed now.

A photographer's lot it rough.

They remind me a little of Yellowstone. But I can't imagine actually getting in the water.
