Morning arrives on the travertines like a careful painter: light slides over white calcium terraces, pools holding the sky in miniature. You stand barefoot where generations have waded—feet cool, socks folded in your hand—while a guide traces Hierapolis’ stone streets and names the emperors who once walked them. The day unfurls as a sequence of textures: salt-soft terraces, the mosaic grit of Roman baths, and Ephesus’ marble façades rising sharp against the Aegean light.
