This series of photos were shoot on the last opening day (10 September 2006) of the then already more than 30-year-old bath. According to the promises the bath would have been remained closed until 2011 due to a complete renovation, but even in 2015 it is in half-demolished and ruined state and still waiting to see what will happen. Allegedly it had to be closed only because the owner of the nearby expensive thermal hotel and spa wanted to acquire the precious medicinal thermal water of the beach. Unfortunately if we see the facts until now, it still cannot be gainsaid.
