Lakitelek bath spa resort

 

The Baths is situated on a 4 Hungarian-acre landscape parkland. The thermal water, which supplies the Baths, was found instead of drinking water in 1970. The well is 1050 meters deep and its yield is 1000 litres per minute. The temperature of its water is 42 C.

The water is full of alkali hydro-carbonates, which are effective for disorders of the vegetative nervous system, chronic locomotor disorders and we also recommend it for post-traumatic therapy. The Baths has seasonal opening hours, which means that it is open from 1 st May till 31 st August. You can find three 160 m 3 warm-watered pools and a 900 m 3 cold-watered swimming-pool, the latter can be filled with mixed water at request. We welcome those who would like to be cured, to relax and enjoy themselves.

 

You may refresh your self in a beautiful place if you visit the spa of Lakitelek. The water contains alkali-hydrogen-carbonic, thus it is mostly recommended for those who have some kind of motor disease. The complex is situated in a well-kept park and has thermal pools and one swimming pool.

History

The settlements of the Middle Ages were destroyed by the Turkish troops in the 16C, and this land became deserted. New settlers came in the 18-19C. That time Lakitelek was a part of the nearby Kecskemét. It became an independent village in 1950.

It became famous for the gathering of people, who wanted democratically changes in policy during the communist era in 1987. The large tent, which was built by the house of Sándor Lezsák for the meeting of these people, became the symbol of the democratically changes in Hungary.

Place of interest

After refreshing your self in the spa, you should take a walk in Lakitelek, because there are some interesting sights around.

The most interesting sights around were built in recent years, such as the ecumenical church, which was built in the style of old Hungarian churches made by mud, or the conference hall and the exhibition places around it in a large park, known as Népf?iskla.

The surrounding land is rich in natural beauties, so if you like to take excursions, it is worth to explore this place. By the side of River Tisza you will find some nice, sandy beaches and great places for angling.
