Medical baths in Hungary
The rulers of the Roman Empire were the first to appreciate the beneficial properties of hot springs — once on the site of modern Budapest there was a Roman settlement of Aquincum. Today, the capital of Hungary has 27 baths and 400 mineral springs, different in their temperature (from +25°C to +85°C), water composition and infrastructure. There are both entire spa complexes, for example, the expensive and prestigious Gellert, and baths available to everyone. Locals are very fond of spending their free time in the Széchenyi bath, located in the central part of Pest.

The middle generation pampers itself with different types of massage, visiting saunas and steam rooms. And children spend time in special pools with surprises.
