Experience one of Turkey's most cherished traditions with an authentic Turkish bath (hammam) experience. This ancient ritual of cleansing and relaxation dates back to Roman times and has been perfected over centuries. Enter a beautifully restored historic hammam and be transported to another era. The experience begins in the warm room (ılıklık) where you'll relax and allow your body to adjust to the heat. Then move to the hot room (sıcaklık) with its marble platform (göbek taşı) where you'll lie down and sweat, opening your pores. A skilled attendant (tellak) will perform a vigorous exfoliation using a special mitt (kese), removing dead skin cells and leaving your skin silky smooth. This is followed by a luxurious foam massage using traditional olive oil soap, creating clouds of bubbles that cover your entire body. The experience concludes with a refreshing cool-down and optional oil massage. This is not just a bath, but a complete ritual of purification, relaxation, and cultural immersion that will leave you feeling rejuvenated and connected to Turkish culture.
