The Çarşı Baths (Market Baths) of Bozdoğan are a historic Ottoman hammam in Bozdoğan District of Aydın Province in western Turkey, in the Çine River valley district of the ancient Carian hinterland. Bozdoğan, a small market town in the agricultural interior of Aydın Province, maintained the essential civic institutions of Ottoman provincial life — mosque, bazaar, and hammam — and the Çarşı Baths served the commercial quarter of a weekly market town where farmers, craftsmen, and traders gathered to exchange the agricultural products of the surrounding river valley. The baths reflect the Ottoman tradition of locating hammams adjacent to the market quarter, ensuring that traders and shoppers could access bathing facilities as part of the social and commercial routine of market day in a prosperous Aegean inland district.
