I had a good wash yesterday. It poured down the whole day so I walked around Budapest under the rain with obviously no umbrella or coat for 3 hours. This morning the weather was much better so I decided to have another wash.. but another kind of a wash.
As you may know Budapest is built on a fault. This means that warm water between 21 to 76 degres is available from hundreds of natural springs: you have Turkish style baths, modern ones, gothic ones... I chose the largest, in the middle of the city's main Park, the Szechenyi Baths.
I tried the 28 degrees, the 35 and 38 degrees pools. I also went to the outside area where 3 main pools allow you to try various types of bubbles, currents and massage-types mini-pools. I saw some old men running out the saunas and jumping into 20 degrees pools. I have to admint I did not try these ones... In all, I think the place has about 12 indoors thermal pools and 3 outside pools. Average customer's age 75, so no chatting up there (-:
You can check out a small video I took of the outside area:
