The image captures the intricate details of the cooling room, where bathers would retire after their rigorous bathing routine to relax and recover. The Meshlakh, also known as the caldarium, was an essential part of the Turkish Bath experience. It was a large, dimly lit room with a domed ceiling adorned with intricate Islamic geometric patterns. The room was filled with marble benches, where bathers would recline and rest, covered in thick, warm towels. The cooling room was designed to provide a soothing contrast to the hotter bathing areas, allowing bathers to gradually adjust to the temperature outside.
