About
This is a medical rehabilitation center rather than a tourist-facing spa. It draws peat from the Chuklyovo Blato swamp near the village of Baykal — Bulgaria’s only officially approved peat deposit for medical use — and offers it alongside underwater gymnastics and massage, healing showers, kinesitherapy, and paraffin therapy.
