Culture/Arts Flowers <Entry limitations> In Japan many people have a negative impression
of tattoos, and even if those tattoos happen to be for fashion there are
bathing facilities which you cannot use if you have them. Please confirm in

<When entering baths> Please only enter baths after giving your
body a quick wash. Those with long hair should tie it up so as not to soak it
in the hot water. It is also prohibited to scrub your body in the baths or to put
towels in the water.
<When washing body> Please ensure that you are not getting water
on people around you when washing your body. Expose of waste in bins.

<When leaving bathing area> Please lightly dry your body with a
heavily wrung towel before entering the changing area after getting out of
baths.
