Haseki Hürrem Sultan Hamam (1556)
Architect Mimar Sinan

The Haseki Hürrem Sultan Hamam (Bath) is a well preserved hamam open to visitors today. Here Sinan has juxtaposed the men's and the women's sections so as to create an interesting mirrored complex. (Text from Evliya, GE-BBS)

Finally a picture of Haseki Hürrem Sultan, who hailed from Poland and was given to Süleyman as a present. A formidable woman with many legends to her credit, she became Süleyman's favorite wife.
