Bela-Bela

Bela-Bela is a town situated on geothermic hot springs in the Limpopo Province of South Africa. The original name of the town was Warmbaths. The hot spring produces 22,000 litres per hour at 50 °C. It was discovered by Tswana tribes that moved into the area in the early 1800s. In 1873 the Transvaal government bought the land to build a resort at the springs and called it Warmbad (Afrikaans for Warmbaths).
