Slavyanov spring in Zheleznovodsk

What to Expect and Is It Worth Visiting

Slavyanov source – one of the two sources of therapeutic mineral water in Zheleznovodsk, which caused the appearance of a medical resort here at the beginning of the XIX century along with Smirnov source. Therapeutic Slavyanov water normalizes excretory and secretory functions, enhances metabolism and activates regeneration processes, improves the work of the gastrointestinal tract and biliary tract, helps to remove sand from the urinary system, normalizes the functions of the liver and pancreas. It is known for its medicinal properties throughout Russia and in the former USSR countries. Mined here, it is bottled and sold throughout the country. But the therapeutic effect of the bottle can not be compared with that which can be obtained in the pump room.

Anyone can drink water in the Slavyanov source, no documents, payment, and sanitary books are asked. But if you decide to self-medicate, or just visit the source for the sake of interest, keep in mind that you can not drink a lot of medicinal water, otherwise you will only harm yourself. Inside the pump room on the stands there is information on how and how much to drink it, and it is better to adhere to at least these recommendations.

For drinking, you can use a glass brought with you, or buy a disposable one here for 2 rubles. Also sold are bottles for a set of water for 20 rubles. At the entrance there is a warning that you can not dial it in your container, but in practice no one follows this, and everyone who wants to dial for the future. However, after 3-4 hours it loses its medicinal properties, becomes cloudy, begins to smell very bad.
