Derevushka Hot Springs is a thermal resort in the Chundzha area of the Almaty Region, southeastern Kazakhstan, where bicarbonate-sodium springs create a restorative bathing environment within the picturesque valley setting of the Zailiysky Alatau mountain foothills. The facility's name, meaning little village in Russian, reflects the Soviet-era settlement culture of the Ili River valley, and the thermal complex retains elements of that communal wellness tradition alongside more modern spa amenities. The bicarbonate springs, known for their alkaline, skin-smoothing properties, are used for both general relaxation and therapeutic treatments addressing rheumatic and digestive conditions common in the Central Asian plateau climate.
