These last pictures are of the bath house tour we took. The men's side was more elaborate than the women's. There was a gym with machines to work various muscles and an out door patio where the men could sunbath nude and the women could enjoy the air in the shade to preserve their skin. The ceiling over the statue was stain glass, ornate and in the mens side. There were "needle" showers and other scary looking devices we weren't sure what they were or even that we wanted to know what they were for ;-) The water that enters the building is 147 degrees and had to be cooled down to use in the baths. There are still springs outside that you can feel how hot the water is. The water is supposed to be 4,000 years old which is why it is so pure. Very long line to enjoy bath/massage so didn't take advantage it was tempting though.
