A BACKLIGHT AT THE LAKE, 2023

            A beautiful place full of charm and peace.

The light of the Sun fills us with flashes and whimsical lights.

Photo taken in the Thermal Lake of Alhama de Aragón, Zaragoza, Aragon, Spain.

The Aragonese town of Alhama de Aragón, Spain, has one of the most important and extensive natural thermal lakes in Europe.

A volcanic fault that is just below the town sends a significant amount of high temperature water to the surface, which when it reaches the surface springs causes the average temperature of this lagoon in summer to be approximately 32ºC (89.6ºF) in summer. and 28ºC (82.4ºF) in winter, which makes the stay at the lake very pleasant.

The amount of water that reaches the lagoon daily allows its waters to be completely renewed every 36 hours, which means that this water contains all the beneficial mineral and health properties for the people who bathe there.

The place was already known by the citizens of the Roman Empire and later the Arab invaders gave it its current name that derives from the Arabic word "hammam", something like "baths" in that language.

A Spanish company is in charge of managing the lake and the rest of the facilities that make up the Hotel SPA "Termas Pallarés", offering different treatments to its clients.

UN CONTRALUZ EN EL LAGO, 2023

Un bellísimo lugar lleno de encanto y de paz.

La luz del Sol nos llena de destellos y de luces caprichosas.

Foto tomada en el Lago Termal de Alhama de Aragón, Zaragoza, Aragón, España.

La localidad aragonesa de Alhama de Aragón, España, cuenta con uno de los lagos termales naturales más importantes y extensos de Europa.

Una falla volcánica que hay justo debajo del pueblo envía a superficie una cantidad importante de aguas a alta temperatura, que cuando llega a los manantiales de la superficie hace que la temperatura media de esta laguna en verano sea aproximadamente de 32ºC (89.6ºF) en verano y de 28ºC (82.4ºF) en invierno, lo que hace la estancia en el lago la mar de agradable.

La cantidad de agua que llega diariamente a la laguna permite renovar totalmente sus aguas cada 36 horas, lo que hace que ese agua contenga todas las propiedades minerales y de salud beneficiosa para las personas que se bañan ahí.

El lugar ya era conocido por los ciudadanos del imperio romano y posteriormente los invasores árabes le dieron el nombre actual que deriva del vocablo árabe "hammam", algo así como "baños" en ese idioma.

Una empresa española se encarga de gestionar el lago y el resto de facilidades que conforman el Hotel SPA "Termas Pallarés", ofreciendo diferentes tratamientos a sus clientes.
