The town of Hot Springs, Arkansas, takes its name from bicarbonate water emerging at 62°C, channeled for over a century along the famous neoclassical Bathhouse Row. Now a national park, the site had its heyday in the era of Al Capone and counts Bill Clinton among its native sons.
Insider tip — The Buckstaff bathhouse (1912) still offers the original treatments — hot-sheet wraps included — an experience unchanged for 110 years.
