Techirghiol is a lake in Northern Dobrudja, Romania, near the town with the same name.
Etymology[]
The name of the lake comes from the Turkish Tekirgöl, meaning "Tekir's lake". The name also means (in Turkish) "Striped Lake" (tekir - striped, and göl - lake). This is because of the salinity of the lake; when the wind blows, white salt stripes appear on the surface of the lake.
Health[]
Therapeutic recommendations: Healing of chronic and degenerative rheumatism, arthritis, spondylosis, post-traumatic and post-surgery sequelae, peripheral nervous system diseases, rhino-pharyngitis, gynecologic affections by applying sapropelic mud from the lake Techirghiol.
