Hammam – Eudemonia (Bliss)
In the Orient, “Hammam” ( حمّام ) are public baths, with both hot and cold water, where the hot water is heated through a special process and where temperatures reach around 40 degrees.
The history of the Hammam goes deep back into the centuries, from the Ottoman Empire and the Romans, right back to the Mesopotamian civilizations and the Ancient Greeks. Hammams have been praised not only for purifying the soul but also for their incomparable architecture and the unique designs and complex motifs by their creators throughout the world. Important military decisions were made there by male warriors whilst the women, in different sections, entertained themselves, discussing their woes and drank infusions from selected tea leaves.
Regardless of any erotic or religious ritual, it is a fact that the water and steam tone and invigorate the body and allow the pores of the skin to open, whilst the massage offers a feeling of deep relief and healthiness, improves for blood circulation and allows the body to fully relax.

We welcome you to our new enchanting facilities named “Hammam – Εudemonia”, the only one in Zagorochoria, so that you may experience the authentic ritual of bathing care.
