Abstract

This study sheds light on the uniqueness of the design of the traditional folk baths from the rest of the architectural buildings, where they are easy to identify, as they can often easily define themselves, whether by their architectural structure and the unique design of their interior spaces, or by the cultural heritage they contained and produced that made those buildings lively and speaking buildings. And a rich historical legacy with a lot of architectural and social culture.
It also urges and recommends the tourism investment of these monuments, which present a picture of the community identity, and alerts to the restoration of those social rituals that express an important societal history, and to try to restore the revival of these practices again, as a method of preservation not only architectural but also as a moral heritage.
Research problem:
- Lack of interest in the popular bath as a cultural and historical heritage, as its internal spaces are formed as one of the pillars of identity and relate to a history and civilization that has a position that we should not talk about in the past tense and be satisfied with it, which requires its preservation and the continuity of its adaptation to what is happening in the light of modernity and globalization of distortion, distortion and extinction.
