Çekirge Hamamı is a historical Turkish bath located in the city of Bursa, Turkey. It was built during the 16th century, during the reign of Ottoman Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent. The bath is named after the area in which it is located, which was known for its abundance of grasshoppers (çekirge in Turkish).

The hamam is a prime example of Ottoman architecture, featuring a central dome with smaller domes and vaults surrounding it. The interior is decorated with intricate tile work and marble columns. The hamam was built in the classic double bath style, with separate areas for men and women.

Today, the Çekirge Hamamı still operates as a traditional Turkish bath, offering visitors the opportunity to experience this unique aspect of Turkish culture. The hamam also serves as a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors from around the world who come to admire its beauty and soak in its historical atmosphere.
