Description

Plaque reads: 'This plaque marks the site of the Mineral Spring which for centuries past has been a shrine and gathering place of the Cahuilla Indians. These Indians, fittingly named the 'Agua Caliente' Tribe, here found health and rejuvenation and curative help by drinking and bathing in the 'magic' waters which rise from unknown depths. Still owning the historic site, the Agua Caliente Tribe has entrusted to the Palm Springs Spa, Inc. the scientific control and application of its precious hot waters, containing calcium, sulphates, carbonates, and 8 other valued minerals. Through modern hydrotherapy the maximum benefits from these waters are now available to all at this most beautiful bathhouse in the world.'
