Iran traditional bath features ethnicity

Qajar Traditional bath is one of the largest and greatest baths in Iranian province of Qazvin. 

The historical bath depicts Iranian ethnicities, customs, traditions and professions through figures made to look like real humans.

"I liked visiting Qazvin and this place, in particular, is located in a very old and ancient part of the city. The place is charming. It was interesting to see how they have resolved water issues in the old city.," a testimony of a visitor to the Anthropology Museum of Qajar Bath reads.

There used to be a good number of Turkish baths in every part of Iran and people would go there for cleanliness. There were not any specific Turkish baths for men or women, therefore, men had to use them before sunrise to around 8:00 a. m, before women could go in.

You can catch glimpses of the centuries-old place in the photos below.
