through the mist of timea traditional hammam experience
Abdulkhalig Hammam is a public bathhouse in Sheki. The historical roots of the hammam date back to the late 18th and early 19th centuries. According to the legend, the hammam was constructed in response to the need to find a place for a bathhouse in the local neighbourhood. A barber named Abdulkhalig built this hammam for the comfort and convenience of female residents living in the area. On the Arabic plaque on the facade wall, particularly noteworthy are the description of barber instruments - a razor and scissors - and the famous character Mashadi Ibad from the operetta “O olmasin, bu olsun” (‘If Not That One, Then This One’) by Uzeyir Hajibeyli.
The hammam is open for men on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, and for women on Thursdays and Saturdays. You will definitely feel rejuvenated and will be pleasantly surprised at how refreshed your skin feels after enjoying the spa’s full-body scrubbing and massage treatments.
