Articles in the Turkish Bath category
In our Turkish bath category we bring together articles on Anatolia's deep-rooted bathing culture and the restful side of the hamam. For anyone curious about the order of the kese, foam and steam stages, the ideal time to spend in the heat and the value of resting afterwards, we have prepared plain guides. Describing how the hamam section of our Ankara Cankaya venue works, we explain how a warm pause on a cold winter day meets a traditional ritual.
Scrub and foam is a purification ritual that lies at the very heart of the centuries-old Turkish hamam tradition. In this article, we look at what a scrub and foam wash actually is, where the tradition comes from, how it's performed step by step — from warming up to the final rinse — and what it can do for your skin. We also cover who it suits and how often it's worth doing.
