Traditional Hookahs

Traditional hookahs originate from of course the history of the world and going back to the very root of the pipe we travel to India where the hookah pipe was first created. The pipe spread to the Middle eastern Arabic countries like the Ottoman Empire (nowadays Turkey). Egypt and Syria were under the rule of the Orttoman Empire and so it was the Ottomans that were responsible for introducting shisha tobacco pipe to the Egyptians and Syrians who then put their own twist on to the story of the hookah pipe. For information please see Indian hookahs, Egyptian Hookah Pipes, Turkish Shisha Pipes and Syrian Hookahs for more information.

Coming up to the modern day we also see that modern hookah pipe manufacture has become big business in China where Chinese hookah pipes are made in the thousands every day in factories.
