October 20
It is a very interesting and atmospheric place. The hakham is historical from the 13th century, but was restored in 1950. Restored for the local population, definitely not a tourist destination. Therefore, the prices are gentle. In October of the 24th year, 500 and something liras room (without time limit) and 240 for peeling with a mitten and washing.
It is better for impressionable and gentle ladies not to come in! To fans like me, welcome, you will be delighted!
I came on Saturday at 16 o'clock, in 32 degrees of heat, passing by. Slippers, towels, hair dryer - everything is there.
My aunt tore off my skin, which was familiar in a mitten, so that it was already possible to start whining)), soaped quickly. At first you sit in a room strangely called a SAUNA, about which there is even an inscription above the entrance. But there is only wooden flooring from the sauna, everything else is from the hammam. It's humid, the temperature is about 45 * C, it's definitely not a Russian steam room. But you will start sweating there easily and quickly. After that, your aunt will wipe you off)). Then you can sit there indefinitely. Like me. And also walk around with a mitten. Or just bask on the marble. When you come out, there will be a large cotton towel with a terry cloth.
This hammam really looks like a real one, There is no tourist gloss, that's how it happens. There were two other Turkish women with me.
I was already in a similar hammam next to the Karite Church about 10 years ago, but it was built in the 16th century)), and this one has been rooted in the ground since the 11th century.
I recommend

I was looking for a good Hammam without pathos, for the locals. I liked this one. There are separate men's and women's sections. We came with a friend for lunch. There were almost no people. We were warned at the entrance that payment is only in cash. They gave me a dressing room and a key to it. After that, they took me to the steam room. Two sets of 10 minutes each and the massage therapists came for us. They did the scrub with a glove and soap. After that there was a massage. Everything was clean and new. There were no foreign smells. I really liked it. After all the procedures, we changed towels and sat drinking tea in the lobby. The program was chosen for 790 liras. I liked everything! I recommend it! Tea and water are optional.

Don't be afraid to go to this hammam, on the contrary, go for sure!
It differs from the hammam for 60 euros per person, which is full in Istanbul, but this is its feature! A real local hammam is not for pretentious people. But I can tell you everything cleanly. I bought my mitten, but a full Turkish woman, smiled and said that it was a pathetic semblance of what is used in a normal hammam. She rubbed me to shine with her washcloth, and then she also did a massage with foam. The procedure didn't last long, but I managed to relax. A couple more times I went to the sauna myself, lay down to warm up my body, washed myself, as is customary in such establishments, sitting in the lotus position, pouring myself with a cup from the sink. Happy, clean and relaxed, I went home! There is a hair dryer, if anything, good and fashionable, but only one. Considering that there were three of us, there was no queue to dry our heads. The men's and women's departments are separate! My husband liked it too. An elderly Turkish bath attendant also rubbed it to shine)))
Pay immediately, poking the calf for the required amount, then they will not be able to bring you for additional services, they did not try to.
The price of the issue is 790 liras.
I'm happy!
