El Bañuelo
Overview:
The Bañuelo is considered to be among the oldest baths and is one of the few places that were not destroyed after the conquering of the city, as the Arab baths had a reputation comparable to brothels. Fortuitously it was not destroyed as the bath has been built below a private home.
The way of its building is fantastic, as it has many columns with arches and in all rooms; there are star-shaped holes in the roof allowed light to enter.
