Khoja Gayib Hammam or Khoja Bani Hammam
The bathhouse was built at the end of the 15th century by order of the local merchant Khoja Gayib.
It is located next to the Maiden Tower. The bath is divided into three parts: entrance, dressing, and washing rooms. The dressing and washing rooms consist of an octagonal central hall surrounded by small rooms. In the dressing room, after bathing, people would chat, drink tea, eat bread, and relax. In the center, there are pools filled with hot and cold water. The floor is covered with stone tiles. The bath is heated by channels located under the floor. The hot air obtained as a result of heating the water was transmitted through these channels, providing heat to the bath. The bath is decorated with domes of various diameters. The bath was discovered and unearthed during archaeological excavations in 1964. Currently, the handicrafts of the "Yarad" organization are exhibited here.
