''The Erzin Source Gives Recovery''
The recovery and mineral water which comes out from different places
of the rocks in the Amanos Mountain, is in a small village named Başlamış near
the city of Erzin in Hatay.
The sources of running water
are 3 km
far in the east Erzin and espacially in the summer, this place is important for
the domestic turists. Particularly ,people come around for finding cure to
their illnesses by drinking the water which is 24C,with pH 6,7 and mixture of
bremide, calsiyum, magnesium, carbondioxide,
bicarbonate, sulfate and sulfur. The good benefits of this water are
helping the people who have problems with their digestion, kidney, urin organs
and metabolizm.
Başlamış is another small and old village which is taken place in the
forest surrounded by the mountains. You can find a lot of cheap motels and
pansions there. The streams coming from the sources are flowing through the
village. At the end of the village there
are stairs leading to this place. On the way,you can see the fantastic nature
of Hatay. You walk on the stone path which is surrounded with old trees
decorating everywhere. On the way, you
can hear and enjoy the wonderful sounds of the running water. This place is
very good for relaxing. There are several bridges over the large river and a
lot of places on the ground or small rocks for sitting on. The source of the
river is in a cave in the mountain. Next
to the cave, there are a lot of holes in the rocks where mineral water comes
out. There is a special place where you can make ''care mask'' with the mood of the rocks. It is claimed that it
makes your skin soft, beautiful and younger. Next to this place,there is a bath with warm water from the source.
This warm water is very good for every part of your body espacially for your
bones.
After this tour , you will feel yourself more relaxed. Not only your
body but also spiritually cause of the climate in the nature. The best season
for this trip is spring and summer. In the winter, the water is naturally warm.
Some
tips for this trip:
*it’s better if you wear comfortable shoes; because of the much rocks
there.
*if you cant drink bitter water then dont forget to bring your own
bottle because you cant find another type of water.
*for sure you will jumb into the water, so dont forget to bring your
swim suits and towels.
*there arent any benches, this
is why it will be better for you to take a small blanket if you cant sit on
austere grounds.
*if you want to go on foot, take a map with you cause there are more
then one way to there.
The
benefit of this trip:
I advise to visit this place for finding cure in the hot water from
the sources.
