Thermae. Fiuggi.

A few kilometres from Rome, one of thermal centres most reknowned for effectiveness of the hydropic cures since  time immemorial and which reputation lasted during the centuries. The medieval pope Bonifacio VIII  greatly appreciated the  healthy effects of the waters and  Michelangelo Buonarroti attests to be completely recoverd from a bad kidney stone thanks to the healing power of the springs, obviously the Fiuggi sources. Definetly not good if looking for the relax in the sweating grottos, bathing in hot effervescent bathtubs or getting covered with muds, ideal, instead to get cuddled in that sometimes poshy environment of the thermae, places that convey a decadent luxury also in contermporary ambients.
