The Naftalan resort - is one of the most unusual medical resorts not only in the CIS but in the whole world. The main medicine here is Naftalan - a special type of brown oil that is famous for its healing properties. This medicinal oil was well known in China and India, it was traded throughout the Middle East. Archaeologists report that these places were settled around the 12th century, but they began to use “liquid gold” for treatment only in the 1870s, and the first tourists came to the resort only at the beginning of the 21st century. “The spring of black gold is the key to healing,” is the motto of Naftalan health resorts.
Nowadays, Naftalan has a lot of hotels built in the 2010s, and the resort's profile includes arthritis, rheumatism, and skin diseases.
