Ottoman sultans

As Serbia was part of Ottoman empire, all these  sultans sound familiar. Most famous was Murad ( 1359-1389) who died at Kosovo battle. To this day Kosovo battle is considered most important part of Serbian history.

Turkey, Pamukkale

Pamukkale, meaning "cotton castle" in Turkish, is a natural site in Denizli Province in southwestern Turkey. 
People have bathed in its pools for thousands of years. As recently as the mid-20th century, hotels were built over the ruins of Hierapolis, causing considerable damage.  When the area was declared a World Heritage Site, the hotels were demolished and the road removed and replaced with artificial pools. 
Pamukkale's terraces are made of travertine, a sedimentary rock deposited by water from the hot springs. When the water, supersaturated with calcium carbonate, reaches the surface, carbon dioxide de-gasses from it, and calcium carbonate is deposited. The depositing continues until the carbon dioxide in the water balances the carbon dioxide in the air. Calcium carbonate is deposited by the water as a soft jelly,[citation needed] but this eventually hardens into travertine.
