The Zeyrek Çinili Hamam, a historic bathhouse in Istanbul, is renowned for its stunning architecture and rich cultural heritage. It has undergone a thirteen-year restoration project and reopened in September 2023. It now includes a museum, event space and, of course, a bathhouse. Bathhouses have deep historical roots, serving as spaces for cleansing, healing, and socializing, with hammams playing a significant role in Ottoman society. If you are only visiting one bathhouse in Istanbul, we recommend this one.
