Here's why it's called the Cotton Castle...
It's a mountainside of calcite - white soft mineral - that warm mineral spring water runs through creating terraces and pools (travertines). People come here to swim and play in them - You can hike up with your shoes off.
At the top there are more ruins!
This theater is amazingly intact...
Phillip - This is where St. Phillip was martyred and buried after criticizing the Roman snake worshippers. He was hung by his feet from a tree.
And more amazing views - Check it out - the yellow speck is a hang glider.
That is incredible! You look like you're sitting in snow.
