Taschen s Favorite Spas [平装] (Taschen s 系列之挚爱SPA)

Relax! Enjoy a massage that loosens those tense muscles, a facial that smoothes away worry lines and shadows around the eyes and a light cuisine that helps make you beautiful from the inside: the spa is where body and soul find their balance. The word "spa" comes originally from the Belgian city Spa whose healing springs were renowned even in Roman times. From the 16th century onwards, the kings of Europe came here to cure their ills. With TASCHEN's Favourite Spas Angelika Taschen saves you the agony of choice and presents a selection of the most inviting locations worldwide. Her journey takes us to heavenly oases such as the historical manor of P?daste on the island of Muhu on Estonia's west coast; the Alpine Wellnesshotel Hubertus in Germany's Allg?u at 3,400 feet, which delivers a picture book mountain view; to the first Hilton Buddha Bar Spa in the classical French health resort of Evian-les-Bains, that combines treatments inspired by Tibetan medicine with modern east-meets-west design and the Shibui Spa from Robert de Niro's New York Greenwich Hotel that is located in a relocated 250 year old Japanese farmhouse. Further dream destinations include the Evason Ma'In Hot Springs & Six Senses Spa in Jordan where skin is made velvety soft with dead sea salts, the fantastic spa at the Four Season Hotel Hong Kong with its panorama view over Victoria harbour and the city skyline, and the Verana Jungle Spa, tucked away on the Mexican Pacific coast south of Puerto Vallarta, that is only accessible by boat.放鬆！享受按摩，放鬆肌肉的緊張，面部護理能消除法令線和黑眼圈，助你美麗由內而外：SPA一詞就源於身體和心靈的平衡。「SPA」最初是從比利時城市溫泉水療中心，甚至在羅馬時代就非常著名；從16世紀起，歐洲的君王都來這裡治癒疾病。本書省去了抉擇的煩惱，列出了全球最棒的溫泉地點，把我們帶到愛沙尼亞西部海岸的P?daste莊園；德國阿爾卑斯山脈的3400英呎海拔的哈伯特斯健康酒店；法國療養勝地埃維昂萊班的希爾頓佛陀吧溫泉，結合了藏藥與現代中西療法；以及源自250年前日本農舍的紐約的格林威治酒店Shibui溫泉。另一個聖地是約旦的艾維森Ma'In溫泉及水療中心，用死海的鹽能讓皮膚猶如天鵝絨般柔軟；在香港四季酒店的SPA能欣賞到維多利亞海港和城市全景；墨西哥太平洋沿岸的巴亞爾塔港以南的Verana叢林溫泉，需乘船進入。
