The Tyumen thermal season, which opens in November, attracts a huge number of tourists to the local mineral waters. 

But few of them know that the Tyumen springs are part of the underground thermal sea, packed under the Tyumen region many millions of years ago. 

How unusual it is to plunge into hot water in twenty or even thirty degrees below zero(+38-+40 ) water, feel its warming touch, how frost covers your hair, enjoy the fresh forest air and admire the snow-white snowflakes falling on your head.
