[edit] Layout

From the outside, the bath house appeared dilapidated and decrepit, though inside served as a place of luxurious relaxation for Sao Feng's followers, as well as operating as the Pirate Lord's headquarters and private meeting place.^[1]

The bath house was situated deep within the shadowy backwaters of Singapore.^[2] It contained a front entrance guarded by Tai Huang and his men,^[3] though the sewer system was also employed as a secret underground hideaway,^[4] and led into the bath house via its lower-level boiler room.^[3] This chamber was filled with advanced machinery, with an array of bellows, boilers and bamboo pipes servicing the main chamber directly above. The boiler room workers were employed to ensure a constant supply of both hot water and steam, creating a misty, humid atmosphere above that was known to help sooth Sao Feng's tensions.^[1]

The main room, serving as Sao Feng's audience chamber almost as an emperor's court, was filled with candles and incense burners,^[4] and was dominated by large baths on which fungi sprouted under the humid conditions. Even the bathers, leaving their tubs only to draw swords on unwanted visitors, became hosts of free-growing mushrooms.^[1]

[edit] History

The bath house hosted the discussions between Hector Barbossa and Sao Feng regarding Sao Feng's navigational charts. Barbossa needed the charts to reach World's End and from there retrieve Jack Sparrow from Davy Jones' Locker, but Sao Feng saw this plea as a deception, and ordered the clients within the bath house to draw their swords. At that moment, marines with the East India Trading Company burst in. A fight ensued, forcing Feng, Barbossa and their followers to flee.^[3]
