Since the announcement of its opening back in 2021, there haven't been many updates on the upcoming Therme Scotland.
But the company confirmed the build was still going ahead in a recent Instagram update.
On social media it created a post about Therme's new destinations across the globe which included Manchester and Glasgow.
The new attraction is planned to open in central Glasgow next to the Riverside Museum at a cost of £100million.
The site will have a "next-generation indoor waterpark" with 35 water slides, 25 pools which are both indoor and outdoor, and a wave pool.
There will be more relaxing areas too like thermal spas, wellbeing garden, sauna, steam room and exotic relaxation areas.
The initial plans in 2021 also included a bridge being built across the River Kelvin.
This would link the Riverside Museum to Therme Scotland and expanding access to the Glasgow waterfront.
At the time of its announcement in 2021, Therme Group CEO Stelian Iacob said: "Therme Scotland will create a fun and accessible experience with profound health and wellbeing benefits for all.
"We look forward to engaging with the Glasgow community as we progress with the design and development of Therme Scotland.'

Forming part of Peel Waters in Glasgow, Therme Group is expected to update designs ahead of formal planning submission in late 2025.
Therme Manchester was initially announced in March 2020 with an initial opening in 2024 - however it is still in the works.
The attraction bosses have said the first major construction phase will start later in 2025.
The huge complex was predicted to take between 24 and 30 months to build, so it could mean that it's might not be open until 2028.
Costs have risen too, initially the build was set to be £250million, this has since jumped to £400million.
When the Manchester site does open, it will have a waterpark with 25 swimming pools, 35 water slides and even an indoor beach.
And it will be 33C all-year round so visitors can enjoy it whatever the weather.
Therme Spa is known for its affordability, at the site in Bucharest, one day entry tickets cost from €36 (£31.28).
One woman even flew herself and her mum out to the Therme Spa in Romania because it was cheaper than a spa day trip in the UK.
Flights and spa passes for the pair set them back £315 - rather than the £400 at the spa in their neighbourhood.
