This is my favorite place near Sukhumi. It's especially cool to visit it in autumn and winter when it's cool outside - and you can get into a warm pool with some water. I am very pleased that the conditions at the springs are improving from year to year, and the territory is being equipped. There you can: lie in a pool with very hot and moderately warm water with hydrogen sulfide (if I know correctly), smear yourself with clay, stand under strong pressure of natural water - this is the coolest thing - especially on the back and lower back - and then, as if in a fairy tale, a Humpbacked Horse - get younger by 20 years)) I advise you to visit and diversify your vacation in Sukhumi. The price is 300 rubles - and it's worth it.
