Dear friends, you are invited to participate in a new prize-winning contest here on RRI: \u201cGovora: Spa tourism at European level\u201d, which is devoted to Baile Govora spa resort, to spa tourism as well as to the international meetings the resort is going to host during Romania\u2019s presidency of the Council of the European Union.<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n

Baile Govora spa has been certified as a spa resort of national and European interest. The Balneary Park in Govora, the biggest such park in Romania, which spans almost 20 hectares and has alleys of 5-6 km in length, was designed by landscape architect Emil Pinard in 1930 and it is unique through its early 20th century architecture.<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n

The history of the Baile Govora spa resort is related to two Romanian personalities: Ion C. Bratianu (1821-1891), a former prime minister of Romania, and general and doctor Nicolae Popescu Zorileanu. 130 years ago, they laid down the foundations for this spa resort where people can find cure for respiratory and rheumatic diseases as well as for skin disorders. More than 100 years ago, the Baile Govora spa resort was, according to some sources, the place with the cleanest air in Europe. The development of the resort is also due to the medical research to which the famous Romanian engineer Anghel Saligny contributed.<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n

The resort\u2019s beauty makes it the most appropriate venue for various events to be held in the context of Romania\u2019s half-year presidency of the EU Council in 2019. In May 2019, Baile Govora will host a conference on \u201cSpa tourism: An EU strategy for trans-national development.\u201d<\/p>\n


\n <\/p>\n
