The best spas in the world in 2012


The spas, also called spaThey have become fashionable in recent years in such a way that they have become one of the main choices when many people prepare their holidays. They are opening more and more around the world, many of them in spectacular places that make the experience of being in a spa be multiplied to infinity thanks to the environment in which it is located.

A few days ago I saw a report with some of the best in the world, so I started looking to be able to write them and that together we can dream of visiting them one day, although I am clear that if I am in those cities and places sometime, without a doubt I will visit one of those spas. Take note of the best spas in the world in 2012:

It is in India, specifically in Rishikesh, the birthplace of yoga and found in the northern part of the country. Thanks to its location and surroundings, in the heart of the Himalayas, it is one of the most spectacular you can visit. In addition to the multiple activities of any spa, here are ayurveda or yoga programs, among others.

It's in Jordan, at Evason Ma’In Hot Springs, and it was built under natural hot springs that have a waterfall near the Dead Sea which makes its waters very beneficial and healing. The best thing about this spa is that it uses the natural properties of these waters in its therapies, which are very rich in minerals and which are also used for facials, scrubs, massages and wraps.
