The Ali Gholi Agha hammam is a historic hammam in the Bidabad district of Isfahan, Iran. The hammam was built in 1713 by Ali Gholi Agha, who was a courtier of the Safavid shahs Suleiman I and Soltan Hoseyn. Its architectural style is Isfahani and it was built in the late Safavid era.
The structure consists of one large hammam and a small hammam and also a Howz. Each of these hammams consists of a dressing room and a Garmkhaneh (hothouse), so that they could be used in that time separately by men and women. At present, the structure is a museum and can be visited by travellers.[1][2]
