There are many hot springs in Japan. Many Japanese like hot springs and they take a long time to take a bath. It takes more than 30 minutes for me to take a bath everyday. It makes me so relax. I usually read books and send e-mail on the phone during bath time. There are many kinds of hot springs, such as a whirlpool bath, milk bath, and an open-air bath. I sometimes go to a public bath with my friends. Hot springs are good for health and beauty. They remove fatigue of body, skin become nice, and we sweat a lot. I’m interested in Ganbanyoku nowadays. It is like sauna. We wear pajama like yukata and lie on a hot stone in a hot room. Every about 30 minutes, we have to drink water and can sweat a lot. The sweat is not dirty, so we don’t have to wash our body. I can feel refresh when I go to Ganbanyoku. Women have paid attention to Ganbanyoku for few years these days because they can get slim body. I went to Takayama in Gifu with my friends from university in the last spring vacation. It was so cold and there was much snow. The open-air bath was so comfortable because we could see snow and have a long bath. After that, we ate many kinds of Takayama dish, like Hida beef and Hoba miso. They were fantastic. Food was good because of hot springs. If you plan to have a short trip in Japan, I recommend you to go to a hot spring. You’ll enjoy some types of baths and talking with your family or friends in the bath. It is good for health and communication.
