Famous Hot Springs In Hungary – App Traveller # 9

January 11, 2017 by Rowena Gabriel Leave a Comment

If there’s one thing we love more than apps, it’s different cultures.  We have a tonne of language games helping people learn languages from all over the world.  In this series, we look at some of the locations that fascinated us so much that we created language games for them.  They are helpful for students, teachers, and travellers.  From the last travel article published, we looked at Greece. This time, let’s take a look at Hungary.

Hungary is in Central Europe where hot springs and thermal waters abound. It has more than 1,000 hot springs which feature beautiful architecture from Greek, Roman and Turkish. Hungarians developed their bathing culture more than 2,000 years ago, and they believed on the healing effects of thermal baths.

Here are some of the hot springs you wouldn’t want to miss when you visit Hungary:

Lake Hévíz
