Description
For centuries, hammams were central to Ottoman society, and while they fell out of use in Turkey with the advent of running water, many are being restored to revive an ancient ritual bathing tradition. "Our goal is that the young ones learn from us, so that our hammams don't die out in the future," says Zafer Akgul, who regularly bathes at Istanbul's Kucukcekmece Hammam to come out "handsome as a groom".
