Otvoreni bazeni Ribarske Banje (Ribarska Banja outdoor pools)
The open-air pools of the Ribarska Banja special rehabilitation hospital, in a spa village set in the old forests of the Jastrebac mountain, are filled with the spa's thermal water, which the operator calls healing. In summer the hospital runs night bathing in these thermal pools; the separate Samar mini aqua park next door is summer-only.

About Otvoreni bazeni Ribarske Banje (Ribarska Banja outdoor pools)
The village takes its name from fishermen who caught trout at these springs for Prince Lazar's court. Turks later built a hammam on them, and in 1834 Prince Miloš ordered the water tested at the medical faculty in Vienna. King Peter I came often, treating his rheumatism and doing state business here. The springs are sulfurous and weakly alkaline, ranging from 16 to 42 °C, and four are in use. The nine guest villas are state-protected, seven of them from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and a café on top of a lift tower looks over the village.
