5. Rub yourself with chocolate
Thermal park Šírava, Zemplínska šírava
Since the inception of time, the ancestors have been attracted by the hot springs that have pushed their way to the surface of the earth from its depths. They healed their aches and pains, corrected their health, and those who had time enjoyed the gifts of thermal water. They pampered themselves until the spring dried up or until someone locked it up with their infinite greed. Fortunately, even today the beneficial effects of hot water are pushing their way to the surface. And as science marches forward by leaps and bounds, a good home will take care of your shell, too. Just like on the wide Šírava, where just before you get into the duvet, they’ll rub you down with chocolate. Spoil yourself and know that it’s not just like that. Chocolate lowers blood pressure, heart attack risk, regulates cholesterol, and also inhibits blood clots. Additionally, it is an expression of love, care and gratitude. We’ll leave it up to you which tub you scoop into and what kind of dream you have after such a treatment.
