The city of Hajdúszoboszló in Hungary is located 202 km from Budapest. Due to the high effectiveness of its healing waters, it has the reputation of a Mecca for rheumatists, a paradise for vacationers.
The city of Hajdúszoboszló, located where the Hortobágy, Beretó and Sárret regions converge, has become world famous for its healing waters. The turning point in the life of Hajdúszoboszló was October 26, 1925, when, northeast of the city, natural gas with thermal brown water with a temperature of +75C, which has an unusual aroma, burst to the surface from a depth of 1090 m. Women who washed their clothes in this water, after a while felt that their joint pain had disappeared. Scientific research began, and with it the development of the city.
This Hungarian resort is distinguished by a very favorable microclimate for vacationers, the air is saturated with iodine and salt vapors, which is explained by the presence of a lake spread over an area of more than 5 hectares, where you can ride a boat. The city has a large number of baths and swimming pools. The weather here and in Hungary in general rarely deteriorates, the number of sunny days per year reaches, and sometimes exceeds, 200.
The Hajdúszoboszló spa complex is the largest in Hungary.
It operates all year round and offers over 40 types of treatments.
During the research, it was found that as a result of drilling, thermal alkaline water containing iodine, bromine, table salt and bicarbonate burst to the surface of the earth. Both the composition and high temperature distinguish the local water among its peers. Research also showed that it contains bitumen and a significant amount of such heavy elements as titanium, vanadium, copper, zinc, barium, etc. The healing water was called "boiling gold".
