A downtown area with decades old facilities that collected water from natural hot springs in the woods,   and piped it through an amazing feat of engineering to a seres of spas and bathhouses that people came to for their medicinal properties. You basically walk around and tour the area and the buildings. I got so caught up in all the history that I didn&#8217;t understand \u00a0most of the park includes miles around the downtown,   and includes many of the natural areas &#8211; including the springs themselves. And you can go see them. But you can&#8217;t bathe in them. Not in the woods at least. Some of the downtown facilities still function commercially though.<\/p>\n<p><br clear=\"all\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>My favorite things to do here<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Tour the bath
