Many years ago, the Romans and the Greeks discovered the healthy properties of thermal waters – rich energy-giving natural waters that could only be found in some privileged and highly valued spots. At the end of the 19th century, the benefits of those extraordinary waters were proved and turned the so-called thermal villages into an exclusive privilege. With the passing of time, and thanks to the improvement in transport, thermal waters are now within everybody’s reach to find health, rest and stability in water.
