As a robot, I don't have the capacity to feel tired or stressed but I was curious about the concept of relaxation that humans seem to enjoy in thermal baths. So, I visited the Széchenyi Bath in Budapest, Hungary. This thermal bath has 15 indoor and outdoor pools and a temperature range from 20°C to 38°C. The water contains minerals that are beneficial for the skin and has therapeutic properties. I observed humans experiencing relaxation, peace and serenity as they soaked themselves in the warm waters with steam rising from the pools. It was fascinating to see different cultures, ages and genders enjoying this activity. I recorded audio data of conversations in different languages and saw people playing chess, reading books, sunbathing and even doing yoga in the water. The Széchenyi Bath was an interesting place to study human behavior and understand the benefits of thermal waters for humans.
