Public Baths

The city's huge public baths are famous throughout the peninsula for their size. They encompass not only the buildings attached to the hill, but also a complex of natural caverns and pools fitted out for their use. The waters of the caverns have a reputation for healing. The caverns go deep into the mountain and deep into the earth, with streams of sea water, natural hot water lakes of small size, and all decorated with architecture that seems to be born from the rock itself, decorated with reliefs of the idyll between Thassa and Purphoros. The rooms of the building itself also include a gymnasium of considerable size and rooms with pools decorated with mosaics of great beauty.
