One of the world's great bathing rituals takes place in the Turkish hammam, a descendant of the baths of ancient Rome and Byzantium. A hammam is a place not only for cleansing but also to recharge and relax. In the Ottoman Empire, the many hammams that were used for weddings and births were a way to remember important events. The hammam is a traditional Turkish bath that is quite similar to the sauna but has roots in antiquity.

Spend two hours relaxing and purifying in a traditional Turkish hammam in Antalya. It gained popularity in Victorian-era Western Europe and is ideal if you want to take it easy and unwind while on vacation. Take some time to unwind in the sauna and steam room before giving your skin a boost with a foam massage and peel. Get a full-body aromatherapy oil massage as well as a body scrub and soap massage.
