Velingrad
“The Spa Capital of the Balkans” – dozens of mineral springs, hotels with pools and Kleptuza, the karst lake in the town. More
Sandanski
The sunniest town, with a good climate for respiratory conditions and mineral springs. Plus Melnik nearby – for the evening tasting.
Hisarya
Mineral water, a Roman fortress with the imposing “Camels” gate, and a resort with a long history. Even the Romans came here to get better.
Others
- Kyustendil – with mineral baths from Roman times.
- Pavel Banya – in the Rose Valley.
- Devin – with its famous mineral water and Rhodope scenery.
- Sapareva Banya – a geyser with almost boiling water.
- Vurshets – a quiet resort in the Stara Planina.
- Banya Bashi in Sofia – not a bathhouse but a mosque, though mineral water flows beside it for everyone.
Between us
The Bulgarian tradition is to treat yourself with mineral water, rakia and a walk in the forest, in that order or any other. Medicine does not confirm everything, but does not categorically deny it either.
