Kurşunlu Hot Springs is one of the 15 most prominent geothermal areas in Turkey. These hot springs, which are located alongside the İzmir-Ankara highway, downstream of the Kursunlu stream, are a popular thermal tourism destination in western Turkey. As a result of the continued hot water extraction activities, practically all of the hot springs in the Kurşunlu Geothermal area have dried up. The ground surface temperatures of the water sources range from 42 to 55 degrees Celsius, while the water collected from the wells ranges from 51 to 114 degrees Celsius. The hot water from the wells is mostly used in the thermal resort and to heat buildings in the Salihli District. It is believed that the thermal water from these hot springs has anti-rheumatic properties.
