The lake’s water used to be salty, and locals that lived near the lake found out healing qualities of its water and mud. Analysis showed that water and mud contain sulfur, rubidium and strontium that have a healing effect on skin, rheumatism, nerve and venereal diseases. After the first pool and hotel were built at Palić, rich people from Subotica started to build their villas on the coast trying to exceed neighbors in beauty. In 1912 a new pool, water tower, Big terrace, Music pavilion and drinking fountain, male and female beaches were built. Nowadays these objects are the most recognizable part of Palić.
