Baths are very special buildings of Istanbul dating back to Roman and Byzantine periods. Apart from its natural aim, baths have played an important role in social life of the Ottoman period. At weddings and Bayrams baths were places of attraction for ceremonies and traditional entertainment.Women with neighbours and friends spent all the day at baths and turned the day to a festivity; singing and dancing. Although baths have lost these social attractions, they still have succeeded to become points of interest especially for visitors of Istanbul.
