Pamukkale travertines are a kind of rock. It is formed by precipitation as a result of chemical reaction, depending on various reasons and environments. When the thermal water comes out of the spring in Pamukkale, it pours into the travertine floors, and this spring water, at a temperature of 356 °C, contains a high amount of calcium hydrocarbonate, and during the contact of the water with the oxygen in the air, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide fly away, calcium carbonate precipitates and causes the formation of travertine. Thermal water is supplied to the travertines in a controlled manner. The water given to Pamukkale travertines in large amounts and for a long time causes algae and thus a dirty image appears.
