Funky Turkish Bathhouses...

So, I was reading through the J. Peterman Catalogue and ran into some turkish bathtowels, in the description of which they were chatting about this really old bathhouse the Cağaloğlu Hamami, which sounded really cool so I went to their website, http://www.cagalogluhamami.com.tr/ . It's a lovely site, sound effects are really fun! But after a bit, I was all like, I should go there, where is it exactly? So I go to the contact page, which lists

Cağaloğlu Hamami

REAL TURKISH MASSAGE
STEAM BATH and
THE OLD MARBLE CAFE-BAR

We are open everyday including
Sunday
FOR MEN: 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.
LADIES: 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.


Blahblahblah in Istanbul blahblah. But wait a sec! I thought Turkey was super open about women? What's all this about women having to go home earlier?

I may ask Deniz (my Turkish friend), but there's also an email info@cagalogluhamami.com.tr (man that's a bitch to type) if you want to ask them yourselves.
