Completed in 1996 from 60,000 slabs of local Valser quartzite, Zumthor's bath is a sequence of stone chambers — fire, ice, flower, sound — lit through narrow slots, with an outdoor pool facing the valley.

Почему стоит поехать

This is the building that changed how thermal baths are designed. Bathing here is closer to visiting a cathedral than a leisure centre.
