Escaping From Intense Heat: Finding Cooler Destinations
In the sweltering heat of summer, residents of the Esslingen district have a new resource to help them stay cool – the Cool Spots Map. This handy tool, provided by the district, lists various locations where citizens can find relief from the high temperatures.
The Cool Spots Map includes a variety of locations such as fountains, waterfronts, shady outdoor spots, and indoor spaces. Among the listed locations are public libraries and churches, which serve as cooler spots during the summer months. However, it's important to note that not all libraries and churches are always open.
Unfortunately, the search results do not provide specific details about free, accessible drinking water spots in Leinfelden-Echterdingen and Filderstadt. If you're looking for such a map, it might be helpful to check local municipal websites, tourism offices of the Esslingen district, or environmental projects related to public water fountains and refill stations in that area.
It's worth mentioning that Leinfelden-Echterden has a public drinking fountain since May, but it is not yet included in the Cool Spots Map. On the other hand, Filderstadt does not have a public drinking fountain and is not listed on the map.
Numerous public restrooms are listed on the Cool Spots Map where drinking water can be obtained in an emergency. However, it's important to note that the fountain symbols listed on the map direct users to decorative fountains that offer water for cooling, but do not provide drinking water.
The Cool Spots Map is a valuable resource during heat waves, and it's designed to provide a range of options for cooling off during hot weather. The map is back online and currently lists over 40 places in Leinfelden-Echterdingen and Filderstadt for citizens to cool off during high outdoor temperatures.
This is the second major heat wave of the summer for which the Cool Spots Map is available. The map was unavailable for several days last week, but the issue has now been resolved. It's expected that the number of entries on the Cool Spots Map will grow over time, as users can also add their own locations.
One such location worth mentioning is the Serigraphy Museum Filderstadt in Plattenhardt, which is always climate-controlled at 20 degrees Celsius. Shady playgrounds like the Spielplatz am Katzenbach in Bernhausen's Wiesenstraße are also always accessible and are listed on the Cool Spots Map.
However, it's important to note that the stream near the Spielplatz am Katzenbach is currently largely dried up.
The Cool Spots Map is a service provided by the Esslingen district to help citizens cope with high temperatures. It's a useful tool for anyone looking to beat the heat this summer.
