Taninul es el cierre perfecto para un día de cascadas. Te sumerges en el agua caliente sulfurosa y el cansancio desaparece. A las 6 PM, con el sol bajando y casi sin gente, es el spa más hermoso que he visitado en mi vida.

Las aguas termales a 36°C son tan relajantes que casi no queremos salir. El lodo terapéutico es una experiencia única. Solo hay que recordar no llevar plata — el azufre la oscurece instantáneamente. El personal muy amable y las instalaciones bien cuidadas.
