The new £200m Therme Manchester wellbeing resort is about to be built in TraffordCity - The Manchester Evening News' Diary Editor, Dianne Bourne visited the original Therme site in Bucharest, Romania to see what to expect.
"There are giant palm trees as far as the eye can see, the temperature is a constant 30C and there's the gentle splish splash of water as I dip my toes into a vast swimming pool complete with a swim-up cocktail bar. I may be abroad right now - but one day Manchester, one day very soon, this really will be ours.
I'm at the original Therme Waterpark in Bucharest, Romania - a huge indoor domed waterpark and wellness experience boasting 10 pools, 16 water slides, 10 saunas and outdoor beaches, pools and fountains. It's a truly jaw-dropping experience - but even more astounding is that the next Therme Waterpark will be right here in Manchester and it will be DOUBLE the size of this one."
