Impressive - Very impressive place. With water around +28 all over the year. Water is rich in different minerals that’s why it’s useful to stay in it not longer than 20 min. Also there is no places for changing your closes so take care about that in advance. The road is good to this destination

Must visit this place - Hidden hot springs near Permet. Definitely worth a visit. The springs are full of healing minerals. They aren’t hot, but warm. There is one main pool and two smaller pools on each side of the Ottoman-age bridge that is very old but functional (you have to cross it to get to the springs). Go here and rejuvenate your body and mind 🙏
