The Serbian, known for his sometimes iconoclastic preparation methods, praised the "beneficial" effects of the site located in Visoko near Sarajevo, after a site visit with his wife.
"I would invite all sportspeople to come here to spend some time in the tunnels which are very beneficial for increasing oxygen to the lungs," Djokovic told state broadcaster FTV.
"It's a direct effect on regeneration, on recovery, which is very important for athletes," continued the player with 17 Grand Slam titles, visiting the park with his founder Semir Osmanagic, a controversial Bosnian explorer. .
Semir Osmanagic has been claiming since 2005 that the Visoko Valley, 30 kilometers northwest of Sarajevo, is home to pyramids and a network of “energy” tunnels more than 25,000 years old.
In recent times, he has championed conspiracy theories about the coronavirus.
Even if the shape of some hills in the region is reminiscent of the Egyptian pyramids, its theory had been contested as early as 2006 by the European Association of Archaeologists.
Nevertheless, the site has become popular and the foundation that manages it regularly prides itself on miraculous "cures" of visitors in its "energy machines".
"If there is heaven on earth, then it is here," Djokovic said in July after a first visit. He had been infected a month earlier by the coronavirus on the sidelines of tennis tournaments he had organized in the Balkans, without great respect for health rules.
According to local media, the number of visitors to the "Valley of the Pyramids" has increased since this visit.
