Yrjönkatu Swimming Hall, Finland. It's the first and oldest public indoor swimming hall in the country which has a sauna and a café inside. Before, people can swim naked, but now, it's the 21st century and mind you, no one's going to swim with a naked person in the pool.

Simple yet beautiful, lights hanging from the ceiling matches the overall vibe of the swimming hall.
