Hamam Omerye (Ömeriye Hamam), Nicosia
working Ottoman bathhouse from the 16th century
Why go
The bathhouse was built around 1570-71 as a gift to the city from Lala Mustafa Pasha, and the complex took in an earlier 14th-century church. Inside are domed ceilings, marble, and a central area of warm slabs at 40 to 43 degrees with four rooms around it. You can simply steam, or add an exfoliation or massage and finish with tea and loukoumi. Sessions for men, for women and for both run at different times.
Good for: those who want to bathe in a historic hammam and have a massage
⚠️ Safety
The bath is not recommended during pregnancy; with high blood pressure or heart problems, ask a doctor first, as it is 40 to 43 degrees with 80-90% humidity. Avoid alcohol and large meals beforehand.
