The Üsküdar Sinan Paşa Baths are a historic hammam on the Asian shore of Istanbul in the Üsküdar district, one of the oldest and most densely populated quarters on the Bosphorus. The baths were endowed by Sinan Paşa, a prominent Ottoman statesman, as part of the broader pattern of pious foundations that shaped the social fabric of Istanbul across the centuries. Üsküdar's unique position as a gateway between Europe and Anatolia gave its hammams a particularly important role in the daily life of travelers, merchants, and residents alike.

Insider tip — Sinan Paşa Hammam in Üsküdar, the Asian side of Istanbul. Sinan Paşa (died 1553) was an Ottoman admiral, brother of Grand Vizier Rüstem Paşa, and governor of various provinces. Üsküdar (ancient Chrysopolis) was the first stage for pilgrims and travelers arriving from Anatolia toward Istanbul. The district is renowned for its yalıs (Ottoman villas on the Bosphorus) and its Thursday market.
