Marmaris Turkish Bath (Hamam) is really an experience”I would like to say that you have never been washed before you have not taken a Turkish bath.” This is how Helmuth von Moltke described it around 1835 as a military advisor in the Ottoman Empire. The oriental body and bath culture began about 5000 years ago. The Turkish bath – the “Hamam” – comes from the Arabic and means “warm”. Body cleansing, sweating and massage are elements of an ancient shamanic ritual. A hammam traditionally consists of a warm air room, a hot air room with a temperature between 40 and 50 degrees Celsius, cooler rooms and the changing rooms. The steam bath must never be entered completely naked, but only with a linen cloth, the so-called “Pestemal”, wrapped around the body. Brief introduction: You enter the bathhouse via the reception room, the so-called “Camekan”. Here you can get special hamam towels (peştemal) and soaps. The warm air room then leads to the hot air room, the actual steam bath with a huge marble slab in the middle (göbek taşı), on which one is pampered with a peeling (kese), foam and massage under a magnificent dome.
You shouldn’t miss during your stay in Marmaris Turkey. The Roman and Byzantine tradition was adopted and then perfected by the Turk Selcuk, for whom the public bath played an important role. At the end of each bath, you will feel relaxed, younger and more dynamic, like new born! You will be fascinated by the old Turkish bath culture, hot steam bath, which is called “Hamam”. The hammam, or Turkish bath, means more than a cozy bath or body cleaning. It is a custom, a ritual, in which the elements serve to cleanse and clarify the body. Since its creation, the Turkish bath has meant much more than a place for body cleaning. It was a confidential bond to everyday life, a place for people of different ranks and classes, young and old, poor and rich, city or village residents, everyone could enter freely. Like centuries ago, you will first lie on a hot marble stone and sweat from all pores. The pleasant massage process will then begin. With a lot of lather and relief you will be massaged by the person called “Tellak”. In the end you will feel very relaxed; and your whole body is rubbed in and clean.
