F) Onsen Rules

  • No photos
  • Avoid taking baths after drinking alcohol, because alcohol makes you dizzy.
  • First, wash your body and hair and rinse off completely before you soak in the bath water. Be careful not to splash on other bathers.
  • Pour water over your body and get used to the temperature before entering the tub.
  • Don't let your hair or towel get in the tub water. Keep long hair tied up.
  • Don't swim.
  • As your body warms up, take breaks by keeping your wrists or your torso out of the water. Soaking too long will make you dizzy.
  • Wipe your body lightly with your hand towel before you going back to the changing room to avoid dripping water on the floor.
  • After taking a bath, drink water.
