Where Should I go: Pamukkale or Turin (Torino)?

Pamukkale

Pamukkale is in southeastern Aegean Turkey and is historically a spa town that has been in existence since the 2nd century BC. It is popular with tourists for its beautiful hot springs and travertines, or pools that are coated in a very unique calcium covering. The area is very rich in mineral content and the water, which has been flowing for thousands of years, has deposited calcium in each pool. This unique whiteness creates an unworldly beauty that draws visitors from around the world. If you're visiting during the summer months when the sun is out in full force, don't forget the sunscreen, as the white reflects the light and you can end up with a sunburn quite quickly. You'll also want to make sure you have sunglasses available because the glare can be quite extreme.

Turin (Torino)

The first capital of modern Italy, Turin now serves as the capital of Italy's Piedmont region, making up the northwestern part of the country. Famous for hosting the 2006 Winter Olympics and today known as the World Book Capital, the city is also characterized by grand baroque architecture, palaces, churches, museums, and art galleries.
