Pamukkale (Civ6)

Pamukkale is a two-tile impassable natural wonder available in Civilization VI: Gathering Storm. Cities that own at least one wonder tile receive +1 , or +2 if an Entertainment Complex is built adjacent to the wonder. Pamukkale also provides a major adjacency bonus to Campuses, Theater Squares, and Commercial Hubs and an extra standard adjacency bonus (+3 total) to Holy Sites.
Each Pamukkale tile provides fresh water and +2 Appeal to adjacent tiles.
Discovering Pamukkale grants +1 Era Score, or +3 Score if the player is the first to do so.
== Strategy ==
Pamukkale is a decent natural wonder to settle near. Doing so makes it easier to get high adjacency bonuses for s - the most notable being the Theater Square, which lacks natural terrain bonuses. It combines particularly well with Australia, whose districts' yields improve if they're placed on high-Appeal tiles on top of the bonus from the wonder itself. Pamukkale is usually decent for any type of victory you're pursuing, but don't go out of your way to settle next to it if it becomes heavily contested, as the bonuses fall off quickly and aren't that important for having a strong game.
Note that Pamukkale's bonus is given to a city when it gains control of one of the wonder's two tiles. This bonus is permanent, so losing control of the wonder tile will not remove the bonus . With careful planning, up to 5 nearby cities can get the bonus by swapping control of the Pamukkale tiles. The extra from an Entertainment Complex are also permanent, but the city needs to control one of the wonder tiles upon completing the district in order to receive the bonus.
