If you can hold your breath all the way to the bottom here, you are in a very small minority - this is Y-40 The Deep Joy and with a staggering depth of -40 metres it is the world's deepest pool。能屏住呼吸遊到一個普通的遊泳池底部的人並不少,但能憋住氣一直遊到這個名為「Y-40 The Deep Joy」的遊泳池底部的人卻不多。它可是世界上最深的遊泳池,深度達到40米。
The incredible swim centre, designed by renowned architect Emanuele Boaretto, is located within the four-star Hotel Terme Millepini in Montegrotto Terme, Italy。這個不可思議的遊泳中心,由著名設計師伊曼紐爾設計,位於義大利蒙泰格羅託泰爾梅的四星級酒店米勒皮尼泰梅酒店內。
Operating since June, the pool has a diving height of a 12-storey building, or nine double decker buses placed on top of each other.Y-40的深度約為12層樓或9輛雙層巴士疊放在一起的高度,今年6月開始對外營業。
Wet suits aren't required here as swimmers can enjoy a regular temperature of between 32-34°C。在這裡遊泳者不用穿緊身潛水衣,因為泳池內的水溫會始終保持在32度到34度之間。
There are several platforms, ranging from -1.3m, to -12m. The pool at the surface is 21m by 18m but it becomes a narrow well-like hole as the depths plummet straight down。在深度為1.3米和12米處分別設有平臺。泳池的上表面長21米寬18米,但越往深處越窄,像一個垂直的深洞。
Visitors are able to use the facilities for free diving and scuba diving, with underwater caves for cave diving beginners. 在這裡遊客們可以使用相應的設施進行自由潛水或戴水肺潛水,另外還有供洞穴潛水新手使用的地下水洞。
There is also a unique suspended underwater tunnel which is entirely transparent, so non-swimmers can experience the pool without getting wet。該泳池還設有一條獨一無二的水下全透明隧道,不遊泳的人也可以在這裡體驗「深深的喜悅」。
There is a sunbathing deck with loungers on the roof, where swimmers can recover from their deep-diving experience。泳池的頂部,有一個供休閒的日光浴甲板,遊泳者深潛之後可在這裡休息。
Nemo 33 in Brussels, Belgium, was the deepest indoor swimming pool in the world before Y-40 was completed。在Y-40建成之前,世界上最深的室內用泳池是比利時首都布魯塞爾的nemo33。
