About
A natural swimming pool designed by Herzog & de Meuron, where the water is cleaned without chemicals and the basins look like a planted lake ringed by wooden decks.
Toddlers get a shallow splash pool with water play, and non-swimmers a pool with a beach and slide. Older kids swim laps in the 25-meter pool or jump from the 1-meter board and 3-meter platform.
