For God's sake, it's not worth coming here already. It was cool here 5-10 years ago, when there were pools, everything was natural! Now there are no pools, they make extensions out of cement, they make you walk barefoot, although there are areas where it hurts to go barefoot, the entrance costs 200 rubles. In general, unfortunately, I do not recommend this place. This is already a tourist trick, and not a true natural creation.
I personally liked the cool source! The only thing is that this is not Cleopatra's pool because Cleopatra lived in Egypt!!!! Therefore, do not believe that Cleopatra swam in this pool!!!
A popular tourist attraction in Turkey. Three entrances: North, South and Lower. And everyone has a soe opening time. A single ticket. In Pamukkale and in the ruins of Hierapolis. In September 2023 - 700 liras.
The place itself is magnificent. But the pools themselves are dirty, there are a lot of people everywhere.
A separate ticket is purchased at Cleopatra. We took 7 tickets, one turned out to be superfluous, we did not make a refund
In general, everything is as usual in Turkey
There are a lot of people , beautiful springs , advice to visit

A very cool place - the main thing is to visit it correctly and at the right time - definitely not in summer, definitely with an overnight stay - and start in the morning - do not go from the lower entrance, but get to the upper one, first visit Hierapolis - then swim in Cleopatra's pool, and then go down to the village along the travertines - and there, to the right, go to the park, take a catamaran, and then eat at one of the restaurants overlooking the travertines.
There are a lot of people, it's very hot, everything is white, it blinds your eyes.
About 20 years ago, you could swim in all the baths, now fihwam ...))
It's worth visiting once...
It's expensive, but the place is great, you need to pay about 20 bucks per person for admission. It's very hot there, the drinks at the bar are expensive.
An incredible place. Words cannot describe it, it is better to come once and see with your own eyes.
The only thing is that Cleopatra did not go to the pool. I don't know how she swam in such a dirty pool 🤣
An overrated landmark. We drove from Antalya for this. The cost is too high (April 2023 - 400 rubles, 500 with an audio guide). There is zero information about how it all formed. There were a lot of people, although it was a weekday and bad weather. It's hard to imagine what's going on here in high season.
It is better to go out of season. We were in early July, the heat was 40 degrees, the queue was 50 minutes long. Be sure to enter from the main entrance!
We need to go and see. Even a thousand photos won't help you feel how hot water gushes out of the mountain and flows down. And how pleasant it is to walk on it with bare feet
Expectation is a reality, a large crowd of people, not organized, slippery, fashionable, normally hit or fly off a cliff, with speed. Don't waste your time
