Karacabey Hamamı, Ottoman bathhouse in central Ankara, Turkey.
Karacabey Hamamı is an Ottoman bathhouse in Ankara with separate sections for men and women, each divided into rooms for different bathing stages. The structure features traditional vaulted ceilings and heated stone basins supplied by a central heating system.
This bathhouse was built between 1427 and 1440, reflecting Ankara's past during the Ottoman period. Major repairs in 1989 brought it up to modern standards while preserving its original form.
This bathhouse serves as a social hub where local people gather for relaxation and traditional body care practices that remain central to daily routines. Visitors observe how residents use the space as a place for personal care and spending time with friends and family.
The facility is easily accessible and offers parking for visitors arriving by car. Staff members can guide newcomers through the traditional bathing process and help explain the different stages.
The men's section contains around 28 rooms and features a television for watching sports events. This shows how the bathhouse blends historical tradition with contemporary daily habits.
