Russian & Turkish Baths
Description
On a tree-lined East Village street just off Tompkins Square Park is one of New York City's secret paradises: the steamy, serene setting of Russian & Turkish Baths. Truly a community destination—many of the guests have been going there for years with friends and family—the facility houses an authentic Russian sauna, the oven of which is filled with 20,000 pounds of heated rock. And the location offers much more; try a Dead Sea salt scrub or a black-mud treatment to complete the luxurious experience.
