The Atça Baths are a traditional Ottoman hammam in Sultanhisar District, Aydın Province in the Aegean region of southwestern Turkey, situated in the Büyük Menderes River valley between the ancient cities of Nysa and Aphrodisias. Sultanhisar is known for its rich agricultural heritage and its proximity to the ancient Lydian and later Hellenistic city of Nysa on the Meander, which preserves remarkable theater ruins and a unique library building from the Roman period. The Atça Baths served the local farming and commercial community of the Büyük Menderes plain across the Ottoman centuries.
Insider tip — Atça Hammam, a market town of Nazilli (Aydın) in the Büyük Menderes (Great Meander) valley. Atça is an agricultural center (cotton, figs, olives) on the banks of the mythical Meander, an Anatolian river whose winding course gave its name to all sinuous waterways. The region is rich in unexcavated Carian archaeological sites.
