If you can, go in the late afternoon around 4 PM. The light is awesome for photos, and it's less crowded. I was there mid-afternoon, and it felt a bit rushed with all the visitors.

Pamukkale Natural Park

Consider bringing snacks and water. Food outlets inside the park can be pricey and not very tasty. A picnic by the pools sounds lovely, trust me.

For fantastic photos, don’t forget to explore the pools at sunset. The colors are stunning and much less crowded compared to midday.

If you're staying in Pamukkale village, walk to the entrance instead of taking a taxi. It’s a short, beautiful stroll and saves you some cash!

Check out the Hierapolis ruins first before hitting the pools. You can save time and avoid the heat while appreciating the history before you relax.

My advice is to bring your own snacks and drinks. The prices at beachside cafes are kinda high, and you'll save a bunch by packing a simple picnic.

I recommend arriving around 9 am to nab the best sunbeds and spots on the beach. Later on it gets super crowded and finding a cozy place to chill can be tough.

Pro tip: if you want some solitude, head to the left side of the beach. It’s less crowded, and you can find some shady spots under the trees—way more relaxing than being in a packed area.

Make sure to bring some cash. Not all places accept cards, and I learned that the hard way when I wanted to grab a drink and couldn't find an ATM nearby.

I think it's worth checking out the nearby shaded areas for picnics or naps. It's super relaxing, and you can escape the crazy sun for a bit!

My advice is to arrive around 9 AM. The place gets crowded later on, and you really want that peaceful morning vibe before all the tourists show up.
