Salt Ponds and Mud Baths in Burgas
A long time ago there used to be a train traveling between the cities of Burgas and Pomorie on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. Today it is only a memory shared by a few people. But part of the rail line is still there at the Atanasovsko lake, north of Burgas. If you visit today you would never guess that a passenger train was travelling here. Now it is replaced with bicycle and pedestrian lane connecting Burgas with the salt ponds where you could enjoy an open-air healing mud bath in the summer.
What are the Mud Baths?
Burgas salt ponds are not only a place for industrial production of salt but an increasingly popular attraction for tourists with a variety of interests. It is both an open-air spa centre, a balneotherapeutic spot where you can take a mud bath and also an attraction for photographers and bird lovers. However, Burgas salt lakes are probably most popular for the lye and therapeutic mud that is being naturally produced there
Benefits of the Mud Bath
Black Sea lye has a proven medical effect – it is used for treatment and prevention of diseases associated with the locomotor mechanism, skin sores and wounds, varicose veins, and colds. It is recommended for treatment of osteoarthritis, arthritis, Tendonitis, disc hernia, joint dislocations and sciatica. It is good to sit in the lye for no more than 20-30 minutes to avoid too much pressure on the heart.
