Hot Springs, Spa town in Garland County, Arkansas, United States
Hot Springs National Park encompasses 5,550 acres of mountains and thermal waters, with eight historic bathhouses along Central Avenue in downtown.
The federal government established protection for the thermal springs in 1832, making it the first federally protected land in the United States.
The city maintains a strong connection to baseball history as numerous Major League teams conducted spring training at Whittington Park from 1908 through 1955.
The natural thermal waters maintain a consistent temperature of 143 degrees Fahrenheit and flow from 47 springs at the base of Hot Springs Mountain.
The Army and Navy Hospital, constructed in 1933, used the thermal waters to treat military personnel until its closure in 1960.
