The thermal wonders of the waters of Hot Springs, Arkansas have and do bring large crowds to bathe in them. Health claims and feeling great have kept the crowds coming to the "national spa" and Hot Springs. The federal government first declared Hot Springs Reservation in 1832 protecting the waters of Hot Springs for future generations of Americans. Then in 1921 Hot Spring became a national park, although not a typical one.

Visit the Hot Springs National Park Forum to ask questions about the park.
