Matters needing attention in soaking in Japanese hot springs

there are several forms of Japanese hot springs: baodian, a big hot spring for men and women, and a big hot spring for men and women together.

baodian: for a period of time, you can use a small hot spring at will, which can be family, lovers, friends, etc., and others can't get in or see it. There are many such hot springs in Kyushu. You should go into this hot spring naked, even if you bring a small bath towel, you should put it on the stone platform or shelf beside the hot spring. There are usually

big hot springs separated for men and women with signs: similar to domestic bath centers. Men and women are separated, so you should go in naked. Because there are others, Japanese people usually cover important parts with small bath towels before entering the water, and then put the bath towels outside the hot springs after entering the water. This usually has a reminder slogan.

Big hot springs for men and women: There are few such hot springs now, and the regulations are different. It is estimated that tourism will not take you to such places.

* * the same point of washing hot springs

1. Be sure to wash yourself before entering the big hot springs. There will be many places to take a shower next to the big hot springs, where you can take a shower first and then enter the big hot springs.

2. Don't rub yourself in the hot spring. Because this is a very uncivilized practice.

3. Shampoo and bath lotion must be used in the shower area, and after they are all washed, they should enter the big hot spring.

4. Don't frolic in the hot springs. Safety is one thing, and it will also bring unhappiness to other guests.

In Japan, the most important thing is to pay attention to personal qualities, to know how to abide by various rules, and to think more about others.
