Lonely Planet review for Sekiz Direkli Hamamı
Six hundred metres west of the Çarşı Camii, this is Trabzon's best Turkish bath. The rough-hewn pillars – 'Sekiz Direkli' translates to 'Eight Columns' – date from Seljuk times, although the rest of the building has been modernised. A few of the creaking old-timers who work here appear to be only slightly younger. They're damn strong though. Expect a very robust massage.
