Imbali yeSaratoga Springs
I-Saratoga Springs ine-mineral emerald kuphela ephuma kwimimandla ye-Rockies, kunye neendawo ezili-16 ezibandakanya i-bicarbonate, i-chloride, i-sodium, i-calcium, i-potassium kunye ne-magnesium. Amanzi ayeyingcwele kumaMohawks, abiza indawo ye-Serachtague, "indawo yokuphuthuma kwamanzi". Ukuchazwa kakubi kweli gama kukuthi loo ndawo yaziwa ngokuba yiSaratoga.
Abemi baseMelika babekholelwa ukuba amanzi asemvelo akhutshwa ngumthi uNanitou, awanikezela ngempahla yokuphilisa.
Imithombo "yafunyanwa" nguSir William Johnson ngo-1771 kwaye ngokukhawuleza yaba ngumtsalane kubahlali abamhlophe, abaye baxela inkolelo yeMohawk yokuba amanzi amaminerari aphilisa impahla. Xa uGidiyon Putnam ehleli kufuphi neCheck Rock ePrint ngo-1795, wabona ukuhlala kwendawo kwaye wathenga umhlaba kufuphi neCongress Spring kwaye ngo-1802, wavula iPownam Tavern kunye neBhodi yeNdlu. Kwakuyimpumelelo, kwaye kulandelwa izindlu ezingaphezulu. Ngo-1831, ngokufika komzila weNew York City, ukhenketho kwathatha. 'Ukuthatha unyango' eSaratoga kwakukho isithethe esiqinileyo samawaka eendwendwe.
Ukugijima kwamahhashi kube yinxalenye yeSaratoga Springs scene ukususela ngo-1847, xa umhlangano wee-trotters wawuqhutywe kwindlela yokutya engcolileyo ecaleni kwe-Union Avenue.
Ngowe-1864 umzila omkhulu wakhelwe kwicala eliphambene neNyunivesithi yeNyunyana, indawo ye-Saratoga Race Course.
I-John Morrissey's Club House, i-Canfield Casino kunye neyamyuziyamu e-Congress Park, ivule ngowe-1870. Emva komva emncintiswaneni wendlela, abantu abanama-million bahlanganiselwe kwiqonga eliphakamileyo, bajikelezwe yi-Victorian high elegance. I-Diamond Jim Brady, uLillian Russell, uLily Langtry, kunye ne-Bet-A-Million Gates bephakathi kwalabo babenezela ubuhle kwiSaratoga.
Izindlu zakwa-Victor zase-Ornate zakhiwe zizityebi kwi-Broadway Broadway kunye neenxa zonke zedolophu ukusuka nge-1870 ukuya kutsho kwekhulu le-20. Ihlobo elidityanisiweyo "ama-cottages" ngabanini babo abacebileyo, babenomninimzi wooMongameli, abaPresidente bexesha elide, abapolitiki kunye namakhulu amakhulu. Ezinye iziphawulekayo, kuquka uSusan B. Anthony, uSarah Bernhardt, uCaruso, uVictor Herbert, uJohn Philip Sousa, uDaniel Webster kunye no-Oscar Wilde ba tyelela.
Ngomnyaka we-1909, ilizwe laseNew York laqalisa ukuthengwa umhlaba ukuze kugcinwe amanzi amaminerali, apheliswa yintengiso. (Iinkampani zakha izityalo kwiimithombo kunye nokusetyenziswa kwamaphampu ezinamandla ezinamandla okukhupha i-gas yamanzi, ezo zathengiswa kwiinkampani ziselo.) Oku kugcina kugqitywa yi-Saratoga Spa State Park.
Urhuluneli uFranklin Roosevelt wahlala kwiindawo zokuhlambela zaseSaratoga Springs xa elwa nepholio, kwaye ngo-1929, wamisela ikhomishini yokuphuhlisa indawo yokunyango lwezempilo apha, kunye nokwakhiwa kwe-spa kaSaratoga. Urhulumente waxhaswa ngeprojekthi kule minyaka yama-1930 ukwakha iSaratoga Spa State Park, kuquka uGideon Putnam kunye neendawo zokuhlambela ezine ezine-neo-classical ngaphakathi kwepaki.
Kuzo zindlu zokuhlambela, kuphela i-Roosevelt Bathhouse ivulekile ukuhlamba. (Yayilungiswa kwaye yavulwa kwakhona ngo-2004, njengokuba i-Lincoln Baths ivaliwe kwaye yajika yaba ngamabhafu.) Abanye baye baguqulwa kwezinye izinto, ezifana ne-Spa Little Theatre, iNkampu kaZwelonke yeMdaniso ne-Saratoga Automobile Museum kunye neeofisi . I-Lincoln Baths yaguqulwa ibe yindawo yokuhlala, kodwa unako ukuhamba ngeMigqibelo ethile kumakethi yomfama uze ukhangele i-architecture yezembali.
Ngama-1940, ukuhlala kweeveki ezintathu kwakucingwa njengesiqhelo kwaye kwabandakanya izibhedlele ezingama-21 zamaminerali, izibonelelo zonyango, ukutya okulawulwayo, ukuphumla, ukuzivocavoca nokuzonwabisa. Inani lamabhati ahlambela ngo-1946 kuma-200,000 ebhefu ngonyaka. Ngo-2015 bekukho iibhite ezingama-25,000 ezinikwe kwiBhotelevelt Bathhouse.
I-Saratoga Springs Bath - Ngelo xesha kunye neNje
Ndenelungelo lokuba ne-Saratoga Springs yasekudala ihlambe emashumini eminyaka edlulileyo, xa uLincoln Baths evulekile. Udadewethu wayehlala eBoston kwaye ndahlala eNew York, ngoko sagqiba ekubeni yindawo efanelekileyo yokuhlangana. Andiyi kuphinda ndilibale loo bhati. Ibheji yokubhabha yayinokwakheka. Umfazi omdala ophakathi-bhinqa wayihlambela ibhedi kum nje ukushisa okulungileyo, ndilumkise ukuba ndingabathinteli ukulawula njengoko ndiza kuba ngamanzi imizuzu engama-20 kwaye akazange avume ixesha lokugcoba.
Kule ngxaki andizange ndiyihlakulele. Kodwa amanzi kwakuhlaza okuhlaza okomhlaza ngokubhekiselele kwiparafice emhlophe yokuhlamba. Ndiyaphinda ndilale kwaye amabhobho angokwemvelo anamathele elukhumbeni lwam. Ngamaxesha amaninzi, omnye wayeza kukhanda isikhumba sam ebusweni, andinike uncedo olumnandi kakhulu lokuthutha. Akumangalisi ukuba yayibizwa ngokuba yi "Nature's Champagne"! Emva koko, ndandifakwe kwiphepha ndaza ndalala ngecala ukuze ndihlale ndipholile kwaye ndivumele ingqondo yam inyuke. Kodwa iparadesi yayiphelile. Ndaye ndafaka i-massage, kwaye ndafumana enye yexesha elihlaseleyo lokusilalisa ubomi bam. Ukuhlambela esikolweni esidala kwakuhle kakhulu. Ukusilalisa isikolo esikolweni akudala. Kuyinto enzima ukuxhatshazwa ngumntu onobubi kwaye akazi into abenzayo.
Ndabuya iminyaka emininzi kamva, emva kokuba uRovelvelt Baths avule ngo-2004, kwaye wayekhangele phambili ekuhlambeni kwam. Kodwa xa ndangena egumbini, ndatshwenyeka xa ndibona amanzi anombala. Kwakukho iibhola ezimbalwa, apha naphandle, kodwa kungekhona isandi esiphundu sokubhinca kwiibhulabhu eziye zahlutha enye. Ngaba ndandingenakuziphatha kakubi? Ngaba ndiyindoda?
I-massage myrapist (owayengumhle kakhulu) wachaza ukuba ibhafu yayitshintshile. Ekuqaleni izixhobo zaseburhulumenteni ezitshisa amanzi e-carbonated amaminerali, avela emhlabathini obandayo, ukuya kwiqondo lokushisa elichanekileyo. Kodwa kwafika kuma-1930, kwaye xa eso sixhobo saqhekeza, urhulumente wanquma ukuba kubiza ukubiza indawo. Isisombululo esilula, esincinci ukufudumeza amanzi okupompoza kwiqondo lokushisa eliphezulu kakhulu kwaye udibanise kunye namanzi acocekileyo amaminerali ukuba avele kwiphampethi malunga nama-degrees ama-farenheit angama-98. Ukudibanisa kwababini baphendulela amanzi umbala ogqithisayo.
Ndivile ukuba kukho iibhubhu ezimbalwa apho ungakwazi khona ukufumana ibhobho engcolileyo, kodwa ibhalwa ngokukhawuleza ngeprojososenti. Ngecala elincinci, indlu yokuhlambela ibumnandi i-massage yayiyi-top-notch, kwaye yongezelela i-aromatherapy kunye ne-facials enkulu.
