Two Entrance Tickets in Lukács Thermal Bath
The Lukács bath is Turkish in origin, although it was only revived at the end of the nineteenth century. This was also when the spa and treatment centre were founded. There is still something of an atmosphere of fin-de-sičcle about the place, and all around the inner courtyard there are marble tablets recalling the thanks of patrons who were cured there.
Since the 1950s it has been regarded as a centre for intellectuals and artists.
This run-down, open air bath, amidst hundred-year-old trees and hundreds of small thanksgiving tablets, used to be the hotbed of free thought, a kind of a witty intellectual salon, even in the Darkest Fifties. «The Concise Egghead Guide to Budapest» by András Török
