Spa services continue to gain in popularity and are popping up all over the nation; visitors to Korea can find luxury spas at almost every international hotel and major resort. There are a variety of spa treatments and facilities available, including traditional indoor hot springs, open air hot springs, waterparks, hotel spas in downtown areas, and spa resorts.
