One of the most popular local sanatoriums is called «Shayan». In its place, a holiday home was opened in 1952, and since 1957 it has been operating as a balneological sanatorium. It was opened on the basis of the Shayan mineral water deposit. The chloride-hydrogen carbonate mineral water extracted at the foot of the Malyi Shayan mountain was recommended for people with urological diseases back in the 1950s. One of the popularisers of treatment with this mineral water was the coryphaeus of Transcarpathian medicine, Oleksandr Fedynets (1897-1987).
