Turkish Bath Experience
Bodrum
Rejuvenate your body and restore your mind with a traditional Turkish bath. Dating back to the ancient Greco-Roman times, medieval Muslims in Anatolia (Asia Minor) adopted the practice of steam bathing as a ritual cleansing, personal purification, and respect for water. Around 641 AD, Arabs implemented their own Hamam style — incorporating a cool water section after a series of steam and hot water rooms. Here you'll take part in this restorative practice that’s remained intact for centuries.
