600 years old Turkish Bath SEFA by marsistanbul
In terms of bathing culture,however,not much has changed since Ottoman times.After undressing cabins around the camekan,the entry courtyard,and wrapping in the PESTEMAL,a colourful checked towel,the visitor proceeds through the SOGUKLUK,a room of moderate temperature,to the HARARET,the steamy hot area of the bath.This marble clad central room of the bath is covered by a dome with round glass openings that allow daylight to fall inside in a beautiful pattern.The walls are ringed with individual marble basins where bathers wash themselves.The center of the HARARET is occupied by a large platform(GOBEK TASI),where the hamam attendant treats visitors to an exfoliating body scrupy mitt(KESE) and an invigorating,if not occasionally rough,massage afterwards..
