I want to tell you for the small prettiest town of Bankya in Bulgaria. It’s a world-famous spa resort, situated in the beautiful valley on the slopes of the Lyulin mountain, 17 km far west from Sofia. What best characterizes the town are the climate, the mineral waters, the well-organized sanatorium and resort accommodation, the highly skilled medical specialists, as well as the numerous patients that have recovered after cardiovascular disorders or insult.
The water has low mineralization, hypothermal, with a low level of hardness, clean, without a smell, with many pleasant taste qualities, and it is suitable for everyday drinking. The water temperature is 37 ̊ C with a total capacity of 24l/s. The water is with high alkaline reaction (pH 9,5).
It is successfully used for treatment of:
• Heart diseases;
• Functional nervous disorders.
• Metabolic disturbances
• Massages and water cure
Today, the town of Bankya provides an excellent infrastructure for tourism, recreation and medical treatment, as well as numerous opportunities for entertainment. There are two medical spa centers, hydrothermal pools and modern sanatoriums, mineral beach, tennis–complex, etc., as well as numerous historical places of interest, churches, cozy hotels and restaurants able satisfy each guest of the town.
