"the eight-yuan entrance fee at Shuangxing
"Traditional bathhouses similar to Shuangxing, which was built in 1916,
became popular in the mid-17th century, when specialized bricks were
imported from Europe. Almost all were for males only. * * * 'There wasn't a
separation between common people and nobility'
"Chinese courtyard houses traditionally didn't have plumbing, so public
bathhouses and toilets dotted the city. * * * Even traditional houses that
lack bathrooms have had indoor plumbing installed so residents can shower in
their kitchens.
