Agamemnon Hot Springs

“Agamemnon Hot Springs” cited by Homer’s legends and the geographer Strabo’s works have been used as a curing centre from ancient to present times. The spas where the wounded soldiers of Alexander the Great were treated were very popular in those times. This region is presently called “Balçova Springs” and offers thermal waters, mud baths and a source of drinking water. The Balçova Springs, which also provides accommodation, are particularly beneficial for the treatment. The curing water of the Balçova Spas contains sodium chloride.
