It is believed that the tradition of Turkish bath was started by Cleopatra, Queen of Egypt. Complaining with incurable long-lasting headaches, the doctors of that time couldn't find a remedy for the treatment of the illness. One day a young man came with a solution which was hard to believe. The solution was a soap-massage in a Turkish bath. And today, many locals still believe in the relaxing and therapeutic benefits of a hammam.
It is an experience that never ceases to give you enjoyment, not just because a Turkish Bath leaves you feeling ‘squeaky’ clean, but because it is also something so different to back home. Undress and leave your clothes in a basket and enter the hammam with your attendant. The hamam has 3 rooms: one cool, one hot and one very hot. Spend as long as you can in the hottest room and then retreat slowly into the other chambers. Your hamam attendant will cover your body with sarbon (an olive oil paste) give you a massage before scrubbing and rinsing you down. We highly recommend the Turkish bath experience- you cannot go to Turkey and not experience the real thing!
