According to legends, Hercules himself built an oracle in Abano and when the Roman Tiberius visited it one day to get advice about his fate and threw a gold dice into the springs where Abano stands, the waters became precious and from then are said to heal various diseases. Abano Terme is now the oldest thermal center in Europe with a wide range of wellness facilities that will heal any body and mind.
Some of the hotspots to rejuvenate your spirit and meet interesting people are Piscine Termali Leonardo where the pool area is accessorised with additional attractions such as Jacuzzis and hydro-massage facilities and the Thermae Abano Montegrotto which offers therapies involving the immersion of the body in a single tub filled with hot, ozone-enriched spa water. Keep in mind that any hotel you visit goes hand to hand with Spa and Wellness Facilities so relaxing and making connections will not be a problem wherever you go.
