Salihli Gökeyüp Village keeps the memories of the past alive with its old houses, whose walls are very neatly built with gneiss slabs, and narrow streets with stone paved walls.

Kula Volcanoes (Kula Yanardağı) and its surroundings in between Kula and Salihli Districts have a volcanic geological zone and it was recognized by UNESCO as a UNESCO Global Geopark in 2013. Volcanic activities in the Kula region continued until the beginning of the quaternary period. In this region eruptions occurred in various periods and lava flows spread around several times. Now, volcanoes are dormant. This feature made the famous geographer Strabon called these lands “Yanık Ülke” (Burnt Land). Within the geopark, there are some natural formations caused by the effects of temperature changes, rain, wind and erosion: Kula Fairy Chimneys (Kula Peri Bacaları) create a magnificent landscape with its pastel tones on the Gediz Valley. From Palaeozoic metamorphic rocks to prehistoric volcanic eruptions, Kula Geopark constitutes a source for more than 200 million years of the history of the World. Walk amongst volcanic rocks, touch the soil to understand the complexity of the Planet Earth.
