Yukarı Hamam

Editor's Note

The Yukarı (Upper) Bath is thought to have first been built in the 15th century. Its walls are constructed of rubble stone and are plastered. On the east facade, a double-leaved door leads into the wooden dressing-room section. The ceiling rests on eight wooden columns. The central boss of the octagonal wooden ceiling is decorated with radiating fillets. From the dressing room one passes to a small barrel-vaulted space, and from there to a small domed space that also contains the washing room. On the west facade are the coal store, furnace, water tank and washing area.
