What to Expect
Features of Budapest Baths
In Budapest, rightfully considered the Mecca of thermal baths, there are about 130 sources of healing waters! Many centuries ago, even the Celts and Romans founded thermal baths here, and then, during the Ottoman rule, the bathing culture finally developed. I will tell you about the most famous, useful, and beautiful baths in Budapest: where to go for stunning interiors and views, and where to find the most healing waters, which bath is the oldest, and which is the most popular among locals. We will also discuss the specifics of Hungary's thermal resorts and their rich history.
