Being Chinese, we were a little apprehensive at first, but once you get into the swing of things around you then it gets easier. But going from Hot to Cold bath takes awhile for one body to take on the shock ....then initially you will get a little light headed too. But in momentum it just feels great especially in Japan weather now. I highly recommend me for a cold tired day of shopping or site seeing.

Unique local on sen experience
We knew typically people with tattoos are need to cover themselves up in open public spaces. So it was a pleasant surprise when they told us we could go to a local on sen. Service was great. Brought us there, explained in detail how it worked and then waited for us while we soaked it all up.
bonus was the tempura restaurant recommended for dinner! Simple, delicious and affordable!
Great company of you have specific things to experience in Japan!

Traditional Japanese Bathing
We were met by a lovely guide called, Anna who took me and my 2 friends and a German girl to a traditional bathing spot. This bathing ritual was a wonderful experience once everyone got over the fact that we’d be naked! Yep no bathing costumes required for this activity. Thankfully it was female only and really relaxing, and once we all got into the various pools the stress of the day faded.
There are a variety of pools at different temperatures to enjoy - we particularly enjoyed getting into really hot baths and then plunging into the ice cold one. Everything was provided including soap, shampoo and towels. For hygiene purposes you are expected to wash your whole body thoroughly before entering any of the pools. Great experience and felt relaxed and rejuvenated by the end.
I don’t believe I would have been able to do something like this without the aid of a guide. Also, this Onsen allowed people with tattoos which was the reason for picking it.

Relaxing, blissful onsen experience
This was so relaxing. We met our guide, Kazu, right outside the train station indicated on our booking, & he walked us a short distance to the onsen & educated us about the history & proper etiquette. My friends flew from the US the day before & said this was THE perfect way to get over jet lag. Kazu got us a drink after & even helped us figure out where to go to dinner in the neighborhood. As the title says, tattoo friendly! Not every onsen is (though more are than there used to be).
