The Ali Gholi Agha Hammam is a historic bathhouse in the Bidabad district of Isfahan, Iran, built in 1713 by Ali Gholi Agha, a courtier of the Safavid shahs Suleiman I and Soltan Hoseyn. It is an example of late Safavid Isfahani architecture. Its one large and one small hammam each contain a dressing room and a garmkhaneh (hothouse), allowing separate use by men and women, and a howz (pool) completes the complex. The building is now a museum open to visitors.
