Aguas Termales Nuevo Ixtlan, Mexico

When I ask Mexican friends for their favorite beach resorts, they are likely to answer Puerto Vallarta rather than Cancún.

In the mountains behind Puerto Vallarta, there is a local favorite hot spring.

The most luxury spa facility using the mineral water in Ixtapan de la Sal is, Shangri-La Spa.

Suppose, there is a world ranking list for “Stinking Hot Springs.”

Hotel Hacienda Taboada, Mexico

Many American people lives in Miguel de Allende after retirement, and that is probably why it has sophisticated air that is different from any other cities in Mexico.

On the contrary, there you can find the very Mexican way in some aspects at the hot spring.

La Gloria Tolantongo, Mexico

What is the difference between an open-air bath and a swimming pool?

There may be several elements such as water temperature, depth, necessity of clothing, and whether swimming is allowed or not, but none of them seem to completely define an open-air bath.

However, when I soaked in an open-air bath in Mexico, I felt like realizing the essence.

Mision Comanjilla, Mexico

The largest enchantment of Mexico may be a kind of roughness both in a positive and negative way.

In terms of hot springs, the roughness often realizes wild free-flowing use of the spring.

Grutas Tolantongo, Mexico

Mexico is a resource-rich nation in terms of hot springs, due to its location on the Ring of Fire.

I visited an amazing spot where seems to symbolize the resources.

Gallons of hot spring water gushed from giant caves, and there was a theme park centering the warm river flowing out.
