SPALAND MY LAND

Introduction of Spa for my family...One big one in the world's biggest department store of the world: SHINSEGAE, in center Busan. Entrance fee with a 20% rebate ( coupon for foreigners! ), comes to 9$ CAD per person for a 4hours access! Quite cheap if I compare the bath access from my job...it was 55$!!!!



Shinsegae department store..10 floors?

Entrance...request for massage? Nail Care? Esthetics?




Apparently a hot spring, water pumped up frpm the underground: Sodium Bicarbonate & Sodium Chloride hot spring. Kinda impress, it was quite big...on 3 floors? with separate baths..which were NAKED...and a part is common: different saunas & steam rooms, Entertainment zone ( DVD room )


Baths...shocking naked women walking around everywhere..with scrubbing / shower spots

There were 22 spas fed by the natural spring water.

The outdoor hot spring


There were 13 distinctive themed Jjimjilbangs in the 1st floor.

- Finnish sauna
- Yellow earth room: Yellow earth is a good remedy to woman's disease and has a good effect in purification and mental stability.
- Roman Room
- Pyramid Room
- Body sound room: design based on principle of bone conduction...playing sounds from nature or meditation music
- Wave Dream room: Meditation room with  sounds and feeling that we are in the deep water
- Hard Wood Charcoal Room: Gwangwondo generates negative ions and transfers acidified body to alkalified body....
- Turkish Hammam room
- Bali Relaxation room
- SEV room: Radiating electrons that helpsto metabolize the body more rapidly?!

The path to access many saunas

Relaxation rooms With TV and diff channels

I would've spent my whole day in those kind of spa...but unfortunately my family doesn't like / stand the heat... so didnt't enjoy it to the fullest.
