1 Best Sight in The Black Sea Coast and Lake Van, Turkey

Turkey's oldest, still-functioning hammam is thought to be Seljuk in origin. The name comes from the eight (sekiz) columns (direk) that support the dome of the hot room. It's a men-only affair, so women in search of a scrub will have to make do with the more modern Meydan Hamamı just off Atatürk Alanı.
