Széchenyi thermal bath
Varosliget Park is a very crowded and noisy place in Hungary, which is facilitated by the famous thermal baths of Szechenyi, which are located here. This institution in Budapest is the oldest and largest complex structure of its kind, which initially resembles some kind of medieval palace ensemble.
The magnificent thermal baths of Sechenia have been preserved since 1913. They are quite popular among both locals and travelers. Everyone who goes through the bathing procedure not only cleanses the body, but also improves their health.
The first thoughts about creating an urban swimming pool in Budapest visited the heads of local authorities back in 1884. Architect Diese Ziegleru, who was assigned this important task, worked on the creation of the project for almost 20 continuous years. The very first fruit of the tireless work of the architect and his pupil was the swimming pool, which opened in 1913. But the entire planned complex appeared on this territory by 1938.
This ensemble of buildings has an impeccable appearance. The baths themselves are made adhering to the style of classicism with neo-Renaissance. All the decor present resembles an aquatic theme, because the decorations are shells, statuettes of sea deities, as well as various images of fish, mermaids, aquatic monsters and, of course, excellent landscapes. In short, the sauna looks like it's an art house.
The water that enters the baths of Sechenia is close to 77 degrees. It is suitable from a special well, the depth of which is about 1240 meters. Although the thermal water approached the very first bath from a depth of 970 meters.
The Sechenyi bathing complex consists of 18 pools, each of which has its own temperature regime and purpose. There is also a special hospital on the territory where people can get healthy. The procedures of the Szechenyi baths will be especially beneficial for those who suffer from diseases of the joints, as well as digestive organs and the musculoskeletal system.
Various massages and mud treatments are also quite common here. The procedure of taking water inside is very popular. But if you are not complaining about your health, then simple water treatments in the thermal waters of the Sechenyi baths will charge you with positive energy for a long time.
Before visiting this area in Hungary, you need to get a personal guide, as ignorance of Hungarian may not leave a very good impression of the Szechenyi bathing area.
