Spa and Relaxation
Italy is a country with the largest number of natural spas. The mineral-rich, vulcanic Mediterranean terrain is geographically ideal for hot springs that pop up.
For the Etruscans, they were sacred waters where they could restore well-being and health. For the ancient Romans much more: not only did they know the beneficial effects of thermal waters, but the baths were the place to create well-being, beauty, and important relationships.
The culture of the thermal baths of Imperial Rome set a school for the whole of Europe and even today, Italy is still the country with the highest quality spas in the world.
