GEOTOUR & IRSE 2012 MARKET POSITIONS AND SOURCES OF POSSIBLE DEVELOPMENT OF THE THERMAL BATHS OF NORTHERN HUNGARY Zsolt Péter University of Miskolc, Institute of World and Regional Economics 3515 Hungary, Miskolc, Miskolc-Egyetemváros e-mail: regpzs@uni-miskolc.hu ABSTRACT Outstanding natural conditions are at disposal of Hungary in the case the hot water sources which can be found under the surface. About 80% of the territory where thermal water can be found. We are in the world's forefront on this basis, question but, that on the area of the utilization so distinguished our positions. I am for responding to this question in my study, with a strange look onto the north Hungary region's baths. INTRODUCTION Hungary has prominent health tourism facilities. More than 80% of the country‟s territory has potential thermal water resources. Next to Japan Iceland Italy and France Hungary has the world's fifth most significant thermal water reserve. In addition mofetta mud can expand the supply of health tourism. Among the 1372 thermal wells 197 recognized medicinal waters are listed. 385 settlements have baths with thermal or/and medicinal water 65 of which are qualified spas [1]. DEVELOPMENTS OF TODAY Hungary's first baths were built at the foot of the Buda hills by the ancient Romans who had advanced bathing culture. The same water was used in the Middle Age during the reign of King Sigismund and Matthias when famous spas operated. The Second World War and the subsequent years made dramatic effects on tourism development. Almost all tourist attractions directly or indirectly suffered the devastation of war. International tourist disappeared. The development of domestic tourism was the first priority. Several new baths had been built since the second five-year plan period which was followed by the expansion of hotel capacity in Budapest and in the countryside. In the 70s the UN within the framework of the VÁTI a Thermal Project Office was established for creating thermal development programs. After the change of regime the bath improvements primarily occurred in the framework of Széchenyi Plan (launched in 2000). The health tourism sub program wanted to improve the competitiveness of the Hungarian baths to the European level. Thanks to developments facilities involved in the program could increase their initial 221 average opening days to 316 their water surface was extended by 31 thousand m2. Tourist traffic raised by 26% it reached 16.1 million visitors [1]. MARKET POSITIONS ON THE DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL MARKET Hungary has the world's fifth most significant thermal water reserve in the case of water quality has a relative advantage position because usually high temperature meets with high mineral content. Competitors as Italy and France have waters usually with high mineral content and lower temperatures or as in Japan and Iceland high temperatures with lower mineral content. 45
