About

Bulgurlu Hamamı is on Bulgurlu Caddesi in the Bulgurlu neighbourhood, on the slopes of Küçük Çamlıca in Istanbul's Üsküdar district. Dating from the 17th century, the building is one of the historic hammams registered in the Kültür Envanteri (Cultural Inventory), with its inscription still in place; it continues to operate as a hammam in the area today.
According to a study of Üsküdar's hammams, unlike the Ağa and Çinili hammams of the same period, which were built as double hammams, Bulgurlu Hamamı is a single hammam, meaning it has no separate sections for women and men. For this reason the hammam alternates by day: according to the MultiSport facility list, Wednesdays are reserved for women and the other days of the week for men.
As a small, quiet neighbourhood hammam, it appeals to those who want to experience a traditional Turkish bath in a simple way, to residents of Üsküdar's inner neighbourhoods and to people exploring the Çamlıca area. It is a good idea to contact the hammam beforehand for details of services and prices.
Opening hours differ between sources; in particular, different closing times are given for the women's day. It is best to call +90 535 652 17 63 before you go to confirm the arrangement and hours for that day.
