Turkey celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Republic of Turkey in Istanbul. On this occasion, a 500-year-old hammam in Istanbul unveiled Ottoman secrets. The hammam, known as Zeyrek Cinili Hammam, has survived fires, earthquakes, and suspicious sultans. The restoration of the historical bathhouse revealed a multilayered history, including tile smuggling, war captives expressing their lost battle through graffiti, and the rise and decline of public baths in the Ottoman Empire.
