After having our breakfast at a suitable venue, we head to our first stop, the beld "Gül Kenti Güneykent" in Isparta. This charming village, which is responsible for a large portion of the rose production in Isparta, contributes to intercultural integration by introducing guests to its traditions, customs, food, and other beauties during the rose harvesting season. The land of roses, Isparta, meets 65% of the world’s rose oil needs, and we arrive in the village where “the roses smile at the sky.” First, we visit the Rose Garden. Here, we immerse ourselves in the roses and collect rose petals in the bags we are given. After taking beautiful photos amidst the delightful scents, we are awaited at the Rose Factory. While learning how rose oil is extracted through traditional methods, we observe the old rose oil extraction machines, boilers, and distillation tools. Additionally, we create wonderful memories by immersing ourselves in the Rose Pool made of rose petals. After sipping on our rose-flavored Turkish Delight coffee, we proceed to Çivril-Işıklı Lake in Denizli. This is a fantastic location for nature enthusiasts. The Water Lilies are the main reason for the lake's fame. Home to many living beings, Işıklı Lake allows you to explore its beauty and the lily festival through an optional 1-hour boat tour (at extra cost). After the boat tour, we say goodbye to this magnificent place that greeted us with its stunning view. We then arrive at Kaklık Cave in Denizli. Kaklık Cave is adorned with stalactites and stalagmites and is similar to the travertines found in Pamukkale, being referred to as the little Pamukkale or Cave Pamukkale. The cave contains thermal water and, after visiting this cave known as the second Pamukkale with its Damlataş pools reminiscent of Pamukkale, we begin our journey back.
After our free time, we head to Kusadası and say goodbye until we meet in our next trip.
