Gellért Spa - Budapest, Hungary

Budapest, is a unique city in more than one way. For those who love spa and wellness, it is unique for being, the only large city in the world, which abounds in fountains of healing water. 70 million liters of 21 to 78 Celsius warm thermal water spring, forth daily from its 118 natural thermal springs.
No wonder, that as early as in 1934, Budapest was awarded the supreme title "Spa City". Three years later, the first International Balneological Congress was organised, and the seat of the International Balneological Association was established at the Gellért Thermal Bath in Budapest. The Congress reasoned with the following words: "...no city can put forward a stronger claim to this than Budapest. Endowed by nature with a wonderful generosity of excellent thermal waters and unrivalled natural beauty.
Construction on the Hotel Saint Gellért started in 1912. The hotel was named for Saint Gellért, who was the first bishop of Hungary in the 11th Century. The Gellért Bath and Hotel itself, opened its doors in 1918. Two, outdoor pools were added later on, and today it combines modern technical developments with rich historical heritage. Hotel Gellért is famous for its thermal baths. The Gellért Spa which is connected to the hotel, is a very special attraction with its indoor and outdoor swimming pools, wave bath, sunbathing terrace and thermal spa. The Jacuzzi with its glass roof, and the wave bath are favorites among guests.
On my request, I was granted a chance to walk around, explore and record this beautiful spa, in the heart of Budapest. Let me show you, my "Budapest hot water adventure".
