Many people are torn to rest abroad, believing that somewhere there, beyond the seas-oceans, it must be better than at home. Meanwhile, we also have thousands of fabulously beautiful places that Russia is proud of. Bashkortostan - one of its republics - is famous for its wonderful forests, mountains, rivers, lakes. But perhaps there is no such mountain as Yangantau anywhere else in the world. It is famous for the fact that unusually healing vapors come to the surface from its depths. Their temperature at some points can reach +150 degrees! Vapors contain a whole range of useful elements. It is this natural gift that is used in the treatment at the Yangantau sanatorium. According to legend, such a miracle with the mountain was made by a star that fell on it from the sky. Incredibly, this legend was confirmed. When a foundation pit was dug on the mountain for construction needs, they stumbled upon a rare meteorite. It was so huge that only small fragments of it could be brought to the surface for research. Perhaps andTrue, the celestial body influenced the thermal processes in the mountain. Be that as it may, people have been using its life-giving warmth for more than a dozen years. At the beginning of the last century, a balneological clinic was built here, which has now turned into a chic resort, called the same as the unique mountain - "Yangantau".
