Even at the end of Istanbul, only the Blue Mosque is visited. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info was thinking at the time, the theme is good, the domestic part of the tour is okay, but the foreign section seems to be in a hurry, such a big Turkey, only go to Istanbul, what about the other monuments of the Silk Road? Wouldn't you miss it completely.
Therefore, when Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi's itinerary changed the scenic spot here to this ancient post station, everyone did not object, after all, they had a close experience of the glory of the Silk Road in foreign countries. The post station building is magnificent and tall, which shows the scale of the commercial town in those years, and I don't know how many silk, porcelain and so on from Yunluo Country passed through here.
Travel to Istanbul and beyond. It is said that through the Silk Road, the traditional Chinese patterns such as dragons, phoenixes, and auspicious clouds were also transmitted to Turkey, which influenced many patterns of Turkish carpets. Sultan Hamai Ancient Post Station Turkey Zhou Xiken in Sultan Hamai Ancient Post Station The gate of Sultan Hamai Ancient Post Station in Turkey is very Islamic style.
The decorative carvings on and on both sides of the gate are clear. Sultan Hamai Ancient StationTurkey Sultan Hamai Ancient StationTurkey Sultan Hamai Stock StationTurkeyThis is the entrance to the ancient station, and you need to buy a ticket at your own expense to enter. I heard that it was a mosque inside, and there was nothing to do, so it was rare for everyone to enter.
Sultan Hamai Ancient Post Station Turkey Sultan Hamai Ancient Post Station Turkey Zhou Xiken asked Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi to pay attention to the pattern on the wall, and noticed the hexagon, the Turks believe that it is a special pattern of Islam, and on important occasions, other countries cannot use it casually.
Sultan Hamai Ancient Post Station Turkey 5 Nights Pamukkale About 4 hours drive from the Ancient Post Station, Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi came to Pamukkale, the location of Pamukkale. It's a suburb with a lot of five-star hotels. This is the hotel where Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi stayed, and it is also five stars, in fact, since leaving Cappadocia.
Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi both live in five-star hotels. Five-star hotels abroad are not as good as those in China, and Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi originally wanted to save a little. It was changed to 4 stars, but the travel agency did not agree and had to give up. Nice turkish carpet in the lobby of the accommodation hotel. Various hotels in Turkey have carpeted hallways, rooms, and feel comfortable.
The dining room of the hotel lobby Pamuk Kale Hotel is large, and seats have been arranged for Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi in advance. It's very close to Pamukkale and tourists come here. Many live here. In the hotel dining room Pamuk Kale, Zhou Xiken told Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi that the buffet in this hotel was very good.
It is a large room dedicated to picking up food, and the dishes are very rich. The hotel buffet Pamuk Kale Turks never fry this green leafy vegetable, eat all lettuce, and those seasonings are not suitable for Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi's appetite, so they can't eat it. And the hot dishes in Turkey, which are almost all boiled, taste very salty. Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi figured out a way.
Putting the juice of the hot dish on top of these lettuces feels pretty good, at least you can eat it. Hotel buffet Pamuk Kale This hotel has a lot of barbecue, ok, but unfortunately today there is only chicken. The hotel buffet Pamuk Kale Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi in Turkey in those days, never cut off the fruit, the hotel has it, this variety is more.
I can't get used to eating anything else. Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi can eat fruits vigorously, which is also conducive to weight loss. The hotel buffet Pamukkale Turkish desserts should be considered a sight. There are many varieties, bright colors, and it arouses the appetite. This house has the most desserts, and the clouds are not finished yet.
However, Turkish desserts are too sweet to eat much. Exquisite dessert Pamukkale exquisite dessert Pamukkale after returning home. EZ looked at Yunluo's photos and said, "The accommodation is good, how many stars?" "When I heard that almost all of them were five-star, I was surprised when I inquired about the price and the number of days I visited. Actually, another advantage here is that there are hot springs.
Visitors are free to soak in the hot springs. Good value for money, right? The room has a view of Pamukkale's trip to Pamukkale this morning and the ancient city of Ephesus in the afternoon. Pamukkale is located in the city of Denizli, a textile industry town in southwestern Turkey, 290 kilometers from Izmir. Pamukkale is Pamukkale.
Because the Turkish word pamuk means "cotton" and kale means "castle". Pamukkale is the most well-known natural attraction in Turkey outside of Cappadocia. Pamukkale got its name from the natural wonder that resembles white cotton. In the middle of the hills, which resemble terraced rice fields.
Natural spring water gushes out from underground, and when the sun shines on the terraces, the water reflects a blue-green hue and dots the snow-white hills, creating a beautiful natural picture under the blue sky. Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi's car was parked on the road in front of Pamukkale Mountain, where Pamukkale could be overlooked.
In a yellow land, this strange white hillside is highlighted, with a height of 160 meters and a slope length of 2,700 meters. Since ancient times, in addition to the stunning beauty of Pamukkale, there are also hot springs that are good for human health, making it famous far and wide.
It is said that the spring water of Pamukkale is rich in minerals such as calcium carbonate, sodium, and magnesium. Whether soaked or drunk, it is beneficial to human health, especially for sciatica, nervous system, urinary organs and other diseases. Every year, tens of millions of tourists come here to see the white rocks that resemble a cotton castle and to recuperate.
Therefore, a scenic spot with Pamukkale as the core has been formed. The entrance to Pamukkale is on top of a hill. After Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi entered the scenic spot, they arrived first at the entrance of the ancient city of Jeerapolis. From Roman times.
Pamukkale attracts many people to the spa. At that time, dignitaries and chaebol tycoons were proud to come here to soak in the hot springs and spend their old age in peace, and some people who came here for treatment died of old age. For the ancient people, such a beautiful view must have been the place where the gods lived.
Therefore, the ancient city of Jeerapolis near the natural hot springs was built. The entrance to the ancient city of Jeerapolis is very desolate and there are not many ruins left behind. The sisters are all photomaniacs and still take pictures non-stop on this ruin. The ruins of the ancient city of Yeerapolis Pamuk Kale Today, Zhou Xiken is not like the sky, and he is anxious to lead the way in front.
Seeing the urging not moving, he asked Ding Ding Cat to hand over some people's cameras, and announced that he must finish the visit at 9 o'clock today and assemble on time. The sisters had become accustomed to him not setting a meeting time. Now it's time to boil, everyone meets, just don't come back on time to gather and see what he does. The serious photographer also notified the dinging cat.
Yunluo reminded her that the notice was wrong, and Ding Ding Cat should be with Zhou Xiken. Ding Ding Cat said tolerantly: "Yunluo is with you." If you don't want to come back, don't come back. "The ancient Roman baths that have been preserved are now museums.
Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi's excitement is in Pamukkale, and as for the ruins of the ancient city, they just want to pass by. The ancient Roman bath Pamuk Kale is said to have been a fountain in ancient times. The ruins of the ancient city of Jeerapolis, Pamukkale, cover a vast area, but the site has been damaged by earthquakes twice, turning the ancient city into ruins, and all that Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi see is ruins.
The ruins of the ancient city of Jeerapolis Pamuk Kalai the ruins of the ancient city of Yeerapolis Pamuk Kale read the guide in advance and knew that the ruins of the ancient city were well preserved and there was an ancient theater. The Grand Theater is on a hillside. Yunluo walked away too quickly, and he was out of breath for a while. Zhou Xiken stretched out his arm and signaled to help Yunluo up, and Yunluo told him that Yunluo could persevere.
In the morning light, the ancient theater of Haier Pauli retains its former momentum, an open-air theater built in the 2nd century AD, in the shape of a half-moon, with 14 columns and decorations on the stage. The style is still the same. Did Pamuk Kale, the ancient theater of Haile, see the small semicircular seat in the middle of the lower part of the theater?
It is said that this was the seat of dignitaries at that time. Haile Pauli Ancient Theater Pamuk Kale Actually. The ancient city of Jeerapolis is closely connected to Pamukkale, standing on the top of the Grand Theater, the white part you can see from a distance is Pamukkale. The ruins of the ancient city of Yelapolis, Pamuk Kale Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi, were concerned about Pamukkale, took a few photos, and hurried down the mountain.
Zhu Zhu couldn't walk anymore. Regretting going to the ancient city, she said that she should wait for Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi by Pamukkale, it is better than looking at the ruins. There are already quite a few people who have finished soaking in the hot springs. The people who were about to soak in the hot springs, Pamuk Kale, arrived at Pamukkale, and Zhou Xiken emphasized the meeting time, and Yunluo told him directly. There is not enough time to come back on time.
He said helplessly, go, go, anyway, Yunluo said nine o'clock, you will definitely come back at ten o'clock, Yunluo said ten o'clock, you will definitely come back at ten o'clock. It seems that most of the other tourists will also linger in Pamukkale. Later, I learned that Mohammed, the driver of Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi, was from Izmir and wanted to go home tonight, so Zhou Xiken urged Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi all the way.
This was the only time in Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi's entire trip in Turkey that the tour time was so restricted. Due to the constant flow of tourists and the construction of a large number of hot spring inns at the foot of the mountain, the amount of spring water has decreased dramatically in recent years. The depleted water source has turned the snow-white surface yellow and gray, and the Turkish authorities, realizing the seriousness of the situation, have announced the temporary closure of Pamukkale for tourism.
Let this place recuperate. After the reopening, apart from restricting the range and activities of visitors to Pamukkale (barefoot and no swimming), only one hot spring is open to the public. Zhou Xiken asked Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi to put their shoes on the top of the mountain, and he took care of them, so that Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi could travel lightly.
On both sides of the road where Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi go down the mountain are large and small terraced fields, the pond water is turquoise, very similar to the Huanglong scenic spot, but the rock of Huanglong is yellow, the rock of Pamukkale is white, and the color effect is more shocking. This is a unique landscape.
In fact, the calcium bicarbonate-rich hot spring seeps out of the limestone rock mass, and the spring water gathers and circulates along the terrain, and the calcium bicarbonate contained in the spring slowly releases travertine crystals. These travertine crystals have accumulated over thousands of years to form today's stairbank landscape.
The picture below is the most beautiful part of Pamukkale, which is no longer accessible to tourists. This picture is the most beautiful. In the sunlight, the water in several pools glows with an enamel peacock blue sheen. Layers of white terraces, blue or green mirror-like pools, correspondingly interesting, a mesmerizing beauty.
The seemingly soft cotton surface is actually very hard, and it is difficult to walk barefoot on it, and I dare not take too many photographs, and I miss a lot of beautiful scenery. Halfway up the mountain, you will find this view, which is one of the most iconic landscapes of Pamukkale.
The embankments are completely natural, and from this point of view, they feel like glaciers and icicles. At this time, Yunluo saw the ruins of the ancient city, where the photography should be a different scene, and he must go back to see it. Baidu Xiaoqi and Yunluo enjoy this beautiful scenery together.
The beautiful woman in a bikini is definitely a beautiful scenery in Pamukkale, and the colorful swimsuits against the white rocks are particularly eye-catching. Sometimes it is reflected in the water, which has a unique style. To protect Pamukkale. The authorities have built some ladder embankments, which are artificial ladder embankments, which are naturally not so regular.
Turkish Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi had already reached the foot of the mountain, and looking back at the hillside, there was a semicircular staircase with layers of layers. The blue sky, the white cotton-like rocks, and the white and blue picture are so beautiful. The meeting time has long passed.
Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi hurriedly caught up with the top of the mountain, and before they had time to put on their shoes, Yunluo ran to the ancient city wall barefoot, looking at the road they had just walked. From the edge of the ancient city ruins, the hot spring water here is good, a few foreigners lie in the roadside canal to soak in the hot springs, those green as a mirror of the hot springs can only be seen from afar.
From the ruins of the ancient city, from the ruins of the ancient city, Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi went out from the other road at the top of the mountain, where there was very little water. It looks barren and rarely visited by tourists. From the top of the mountain, from the top of the mountain, from the top of the mountain, from the top of the hill, there is no one on the Pamukkale greenway, and no one wants to miss the stunning scenery to relax here.
The climate here in Pamukkale Greenway is much hotter than Cappadocia, everyone is hot, and the Turkish guy who sells ice cream performs a unique trick for Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi, which attracts everyone to taste it together. Ice Cream ShowPamukkale Ice Cream ShowEveryone reluctantly left Pamukkale and was pulled to the cotton textile center.
Duration: 45 minutes (there are sisters who want to shop). Everyone is in love with Pamukkale. If only those 45 minutes had been reserved for Pamukkale. At this time, Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi didn't have much to say. Because this is the mistake of Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi's carelessness. Since the introduction of the tourism law, domestic travel agencies will not write down the shopping spots.
However, foreign travel agencies do not recognize the laws of China and still require access to shopping outlets. Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi signed a supplementary agreement with the travel agency before leaving the country, agreeing to enter three shopping spots: a carpet shop, a jewelry store, and a leather goods store, which they could only see but not buy. But. When signing the formal agreement, the travel agency gave Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi another itinerary confirmation.
And declare that the second shall prevail. Yunluo and Nalan Shiqi took a look, and all the attractions were marked in bold letters, a lot, and no one paid attention to a few words in an inconspicuous place. Declare to enter the cotton textile center. Alas, it's a pity that there is no precious time left for Pamukkale!
The sisters agreed that if there is such a beautiful place in the future, they will not leave, stay and play to their heart's content, without regrets. It is about 190 kilometers from Pamukkale to Kusadasi and a 3-hour drive to Ephesus near Kusadasi. Ephesus, also known as Ephes, is located about 100 kilometers south of Izmir, Turkey's third-largest city.
It is one of the most favourite locations for tourists visiting Turkey. Ephesus is home to the vast ruins of an ancient city that is more than 2,000 years old. The city of Ephesus existed in the 9th century BC. In the 6th century BC, the city was invaded by the Persians. In the 3rd century BC, Alexander of Macedon (356 BC - 323 BC) recovered it.
Large-scale construction of the city began. After the death of Alexander the Great, his successors moved the city to the valley of Mount ** and Mount Parnar, where the ancient city of Ephesus is located today. At that time, the Hellenistic era of far-reaching influence was also ushered in. In 129 BC, Ephesus became part of the Roman Empire.
The Roman Empire established a province here, with its capital in Ephesus, which at the time was known as "the first and largest metropolis in Asia". Several emperors of the Roman Empire were very fond of Ephesus, and they expanded the scale of the city's construction, and the prosperity of Ephesus reached its peak. Ephesus also became a bridge to Europe along the Silk Road.
According to historical records, a major earthquake in 17 AD devastated the city, and the Romans actively carried out restoration work at that time. In the 6th century, the port of Ephesus was clogged with sediment from the Sea of Love, which disrupted trade, and the inhabitants were forced to move to the area around Mount Ayaruk to trade with the surrounding area by land, and the city gradually became a place of religious activity.
Eventually, Ephesus was completely abandoned by the people because of a plague. Whether it was the Seljuk Turkic period or the Ottoman period, the sites of Greek and Roman culture here are largely protected. As a result, Ephesus is the best-preserved ancient city in the eastern Mediterranean. When you enter the gate of the scenic area, you will be greeted by the ruins of the hammam.
You can see the most advanced pottery pipes laid on the ground. The ruins of the Turkish Baths Walk past the hammam and see rows of stone pillars erected on the side of the road, which is the national market of Ephesus (also known as the upper market), and the private commercial market (also known as the lower market) near the library on the lower slope of the city.
The National Market is where the country's commerce operates, and it is also the political center of the city. The market has not yet been excavated, and what is shown here is only a part of the national market. Behind the stone pillars of the Ephesus National Market, the site of the State Market, is a small Greek-style theater, which is the concert hall.
According to archaeological documents, the concert hall was built in 150 AD at the expense of Antony, a prominent family in Ephesus. The concert hall can accommodate about 1,500 people, with seating, a music pool and a stage, as well as a regular theater. Concert HallEphesus Concert HallEphesus Concert Hall is next to City Hall.
