Story

Plüton Kapısı is an archaeological sanctuary identified south of the Apollon Kutsal Alanı at the Hierapolis archaeological site in Pamukkale, Denizli. The official source calls the structure the Plutonium, also known as Cehennem Kapısı, and places it within the wider ensemble of Hierapolis, comprising a theater, agora, necropolis, baths, and religious buildings. The site should be considered together with the natural and cultural setting of Pamukkale and Hierapolis, inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1988. The earlier claim about a 2019 excavation and rituals proven that year has been removed because it was not verified by the source.
