Modern Russian baths are significantly different from their ancestors. The preparation of the steam occurs by heating the stones that are laid in the furnace itself. When the fire is burning or electrical hidden heating elements are included, the stones are gradually heated. When the fireplace is fascinated, it is covered with cold water. After that, a lot of steam is formed in the steam room. Breathing in a wet room becomes much easier.

The shelves in the traditional Russian bath are located in the form of wooden lime steps, close to the oven. The most comfortable temperature for the newbie - on the first and second shelves, well, the highest temperature will be on the top shelf.
