<div dir="ltr">FWIW, I traveled extensively in New Zealand a few years ago and there an "ablution block" (or ablution area) is a place in a campground where one washes things — dishes, clothing, etc. That definition of ablution is also a sort of "purification", I reckon.<div>

<br>
I would like to propose a new tag for Ablution (ritual purification).<br>
Wikipedia says that that there's Ablution in Islam, Christianity and<br>
Judaism <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ablution" target="_blank">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ablution</a> and worship sites usually<br>
have an area set aside for this.<br>
<br>
Islam:<br>

<br>
Judaism:<br>

<br>
I would like to tag it as amenity=ablution for a stand alone facility as<br>
pictured above or ablution=yes if a toilet has facilities specifically<br>
for performing ablution.<br>
