There are so many Onsens (Hot Springs) in Niseko,Hokkaido.
It's a warm blessing from the earth in which we can find calmness and rest.
But, there are a couple of things you should know before jumping into it ,
*Place your clothes in the basket on the shelf .
(Money or other valuable articles can usually be kept at the front desk or in lockers)
Leave your bath towel in the basket, you will need it after wards for drying your body.
Take only a small face towel into the onsen with you.
*First of all, wash your body.
Sit on one of the small stools and cleanse your body thoroughtly.
Use plenty of provided soap and shampoo .
To make the water flow, just push the button on the tap,
the water will run for about a minute.
Please use the shower seated, so you don't splash everybody around.
Rinse off all the soap.
When you have finished, move to the bath tub.
*Bathing pools are for warming up your body only.
Not swimming or washing you clothes.
Enjoy!
*Please wring your towel before you leave the bathroom.
*Dry your body with your bath towel and get dressed.
*That's it.
p.s.
Don't put other people into trouble.
In Japan, onsens are public places for relaxing and socializing.
Please, understand the customs and respect the locals, so you can
share a much more enjoyable time with our japanese culture.
