🏇 A Hot Springs tradition (even older than the National Park!) will officially begin tomorrow! In its 117th racing season, @oaklawnracingcasinoresort kicks off the 2021 live 57-day racing season on January 22, concluding on Kentucky Derby Day, May 1st! However, the Grandstands will look very different then those we've seen in the past! Due to the ongoing pandemic crisis, the Grandstand will be open only to box holders and their guests and Club members/guests by reservation only and those who make reservations in the other restaurants (the Carousel, Post Parade and Tavern). Reservations will be required WEEKLY for those dates you would like to attend. For DINING reservations (Carousel, Post Parade, Tavern), please call 501-363-4710. For SIMULCAST AREA reservations, call 501-363-4320. (Please use these numbers instead of calling the main switchboard.) Lines are answered Mon-Sat, 9am-4pm for THAT week's races only - not future races. Box owners and Jockey Club members should have received a letter with details on how to make reservations. . . . #visithotsprings #hotspringsarkansas #hotspringsnationalpark #hsnp100 #hotsprings100 #centennialcelebration #oaklawnracing #oaklawncasinoresort #horseracing #visithistory #throwbackthursday

💧The thermal water of Hot Springs National Park is free for visitors to enjoy! Historically people have come from all over the world to fill a jug, touch the water or bathe in it. But protecting this valuable resource takes work, and sometimes short interruptions. January 26 through February 4 the thermal water service will be temporarily interrupted to inspect the main thermal water reservoir. The thermal water jug fountains will be turned off during this time. The Happy Hollow and Whittington cold spring fountains will remain open. . ⛲ Pictured here is the Noble Fountain (dating from 1892) in it's original location on Central Avenue. The fountain can now be viewed and enjoyed at the entrance of The Grand Promenade on Reserve Street! . 📸: From the Garland County Historical Society Archives . . . #visithotsprings #hotspringsarkansas #hotspringsnationalpark #hsnp100 #hotsprings100 #centennialcelebration #visithistory

Celebrating 100 years of Hot Springs National Park with a glimpse of Central Avenue & Bathhouse Row in the 1920s! Designated the first National Reservation in 1832 (the first land to receive the designation and protection before the term 'National Park,' Hot Springs received its National Park status in 1921. President Thomas Jefferson sent an The Dunbar-Hunter Expedition here in 1804 (as part of exploring the Southern Louisiana Purchase) and discovered what American Indians had known for thousands of years - quarry novaculite & thermal springs. A thriving town developed around those springs and a bathing industry drew visitors from all over the world to the "American Spa." . 📸: NPS Image/Hot Springs National Park Archives . . . #visithotsprings #hotspringsarkansas #hotspringsnationalpark #hsnp100 #hotsprings100 #centennialcelebration #visithistory 
🎉 @hotspringsnps is celebrating 100 years as a National Park in 2021! 💦 This unique destination offers thermal waters produced by 4,000-year-old rainfall that returns to the surface by way of the fault line behind Bathhouse Row at a temperature of 143 degrees! Eight historic bathhouses line the National Park boundary where you can soak in the water OR... enjoy a beer brewed with them @superiorbathhousebrewery! The only brewery in a National Park and the only in the world to use naturally occurring thermal waters. So, yeah... Top that, @yellowstonenps. 😉 . . . #visithotsprings #hotspringsarkansas #hotspringsnationalpark #hotspringsnp #bathhouserow #thermalwaters #topthatyellowstone #centennialcelebration #hotsprings100 #hsnp100 
Need to find a little peace after a very busy holiday season? 🍂🧥 A stroll through Historic Whittington Park may be just what the doctored ordered! This often overlooked retreat was once the grand entrance to the baseball field where Babe Ruth hit his record-smashing homerun into infamy. Just a short stroll from Downtown Hot Springs! 📸: #IGoftheWeek by @bmorgan7 . . . #visithotsprings #hotspringsarkansas #hotspringsnationalpark #whittingtonavenue #whittingtonpark #baseballhistory #baberuth #takeastroll
