The Cotton Castle
Drift silently over Pamukkale’s mineral-rich white travertines and the ancient Greco-Roman ruins of Hierapolis at dawn. Enjoy a full 60-minute aerial flight with licensed master pilots, VIP hotel transfers, and a traditional landing champagne celebration.
Why Fly Over Pamukkale?
While Cappadocia is world-famous for its volcanic fairy chimneys, Pamukkale offers a uniquely luminous landscape found nowhere else on Earth. As the dawn sun crests over Mount Honaz, the white calcium stalactites and thermal water terraces reflect a spectrum of pastel pinks, golds, and turquoise.
Drifting directly over the 2,200-year-old Greco-Roman city of Hierapolis, you enjoy an unobstructed bird’s-eye perspective of the 12,000-seat ancient theatre, the monumental Roman gates, the Frontinus colonnaded street, and the sacred thermal pools where Queen Cleopatra once bathed.
