Hammam an-Nahhasin, the warm section (wastani)

Hammam an-Nahhasin, the warm section (wastani)

The middle part (wastani) in the public baths is a section of moderate temperatures, and consists, in an-Nahhasin bath, of chambers, iwans and niches. In this niche there are three stone basins for washing. The walls are covered with modern ceramics that change many of the features of the Ayyubid bath. The floor is paved with colored marble tiles in the middle that form simple geometric decorations.
