Turkish Bath house is still a major part of Turkish culture, a spa of sorts for both cleansing and relaxing.  Ottoman Turks inherited the Roman bath concept—architecture and tradition—as it existed in Asia Minor. They adapted it to Turkish tastes, and called it “hammam.” There are a number of different services on offer in most hammans, and you have to sort this out at the beginning. A traditional Turkish bath package includes 45 minutes of washing; traditional body scrubbing with handwoven wash cloth known as a kese; a foam wash; and a massage.

The attendants usually provide visitors with a peshtemal, a thin cotton towel to wrap yourself and a regular towel to use after bathing. Peshtemal, an integral part of Turkish culture, is a type of weaving that we are used to seeing in Turkish baths and spa centers. Known for its history dating back to the Ottoman Empire and its worldwide fame, these weavings are among the pieces that tourists visiting our country show the most interest in. There are many data to know about peshtemal, which stands out with its light and thin structure. So what is a peshtemal? Peshtemal, which is of Persian origin as a word; It means the fabric that covers, the apron that prevents the clothing from getting dirty while working, and the weaving used for covering in baths.
