Full description
The Turkish bath is a long-revered custom, centuries old; perfect for those looking for a truly physical and spiritual cleansing experience.
The Tarihi Karacabey Turkish Bath is one of the oldest historical monuments of Ankara.
Prepare to leave the chaos and humdrum of life behind as soon as you enter the Turkish bath. Immerse yourself and embrace traditional custom by wearing the waistcloth and clogs provided.
Not quite for the faint hearted, inside the temperature can reach up to 50 degrees celsius under the central dome of the building.
The combined intense heat and humidity encourage the pores to open and impurities to be extracted from the body.
Following this, your skin will be gently exfoliated with a Turkish scrub and you will receive a soothing soap massage.
Finally, after resting, you can enjoy Turkish tea before being taken back to your hotel feeling relaxed, rejuvenated and refreshed.
About Tarihi Karacabey Hamamı
The Historical Karacabey Turkish Bath is part of the Karacabey Kulliye (Means religious complex). The construction of the Karacabey Turkish Bath began in 1427 and was completed in 1440, after 13 years of construction. The hammam is one of the oldest historical monuments of Ankara.
The Historical Karacabey Hammam is situated on an enclosed area of approximately two thousand square meters. The marbles used in the floor of the bath were brought from Elazığ, Sivrihisar, and Afyon. Onyx marbles were used in places. The wooden parts are completely processed like lace with great devotion. The Historical Karacabey Turkish Bath, which consists of two parts that can be used separately by women and men, has a capacity of 94 people. Dozens of tunnels under the bath provide hot air circulation and solid fuel is used for heating. The domes of the Historical Karacabey Hamam are the masterpieces of art. The domes decorated with niches do not even require the use of electricity during the day.
