The complex has welcomed millions of visitors who have reveled in its unique charm and diverse attractions.

Several million years ago, as the Panonian Sea retreated from a significant part of the European continent, it left behind millions of tons of salt deposits and briny water beneath Tuzla. Leveraging this natural wealth, with the expertise of local professionals, the saltwater has been brought to the surface, giving rise to the Panonian Salt Lakes. These lakes harbor mineral-rich salty water, sourced from underground saline wells.

Beyond the pleasure of swimming in these unique waters, the lakes offer medicinal properties, particularly beneficial for treating infertility, rheumatic conditions, and respiratory ailments. The water circulates continuously in the lakes, undergoing purification through sandy filters.

A distinctive feature of this region is the Saltwater Falls, an open-air inhalation health center. Comprising five cascades and two bathing pools, the inhalation of salty water vapors contributes significantly to stress relief, respiratory health, headache alleviation, and overall well-being. Additionally, visitors can indulge in water massages from the cascading falls, enhancing the holistic experience.
