This region is famous for the beautiful nature and landscape, mild climate, highly effective medicinal mud of Lake Tambukan, and unique mineral springs (about 300). There are 118 spa resorts supplied with modern medical and diagnostic equipment, 26 touristic and hotel complexes, which are able to locate more than 40 thousand people at the same time. == History == In 1913, more than thirty seven thousand patients visited the Caucasian Mineral Waters (however, there was no system of medical institutions; the first sanatoriums started to appear only at the beginning of the 20th century). During the Civil War, the place fell into decay; only seven thousand people came here to cure themselves in 1922. However, in 1928 a number of patients increased to 90 thousand people. During the Second World War, more than 900 thousand wounded and sick people got medical treatment here. By the year 1980, eighty-two sanatoriums and sixteen guesthouses were available for tourists. Nowadays every year about one million people come here to get treatment. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sanatoriums of the Caucasian Mineral Waters」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
