Abstract

Hot and mineral springs are one the most beautiful attractions around the world and have a high contribution in tourism industry in some countries. In IRAN more than 460 hot springs have been identified and it seems that there are many more to be explored. Different aspects of these springs such as spring rise, pools and water canals, deposits with different chemical compositions and colors, different algae coatings, historical monuments related to hot springs and natural landscapes around them are attracting many tourists. Another more important tourism attraction of hot springs is their therapeutic uses that have had a long history around the world and also in IRAN. Hot springs therapeutic uses are deeply related to their water geochemical characteristics. Fortunately IRANian hot springs have vast geochemical variations. Although these springs have high tourism potentials, they have not been introduced appropriately nationally and internationally. They have not enough and appropriate health care and welfare facilities. Scientific introducing and studies of theses springs alongside with providing health care and welfare facilities can make IRAN as one of the therapeutic and natural tourism poles in the world.
