Oops! Japan #13 — Soak It Up, Sweat It Out

銭湯とサウナの入り方

A sento (public bath) is a must-try experience in Japan. But come prepared.

Bring a towel, a water bottle (for sauna recovery), and be ready to follow the etiquette: wash first, rinse completely, then soak. Tattoos might still raise eyebrows in some places.

🌸 Bonus: many baths also offer herbal or seasonal experiences.


🗾 日本語の補足：

銭湯やサウナでは、マナーと準備が大事です。タオルと水分、そして予習してから入りましょう。タトゥーのある方は事前に確認を。

  Oops! Japan #28 — You’ll Regret Skipping Rest Days （休養日なしは後悔のもと）Why Even Magical Japan Can Wear You Down English: Just came back from a 9-day Japan trip and feeling… wrecked? You’re not alone. One Reddit traveler shared how they packed their itinerary wall-to-wall with sights, food, and shopping — but forgot one thing: A day to do nothing. “I didn’t plan any rest day.

A true rest day means: No sightseeing No strict plans Maybe a nice hot bath or a nap Staying in the hotel or exploring slowly around your base area Where to rest? Try a sento or onsen — even city ones like in Osaka Book a hotel ...

  Oops! Japan #39 — Ghibli Dreams, Real-World Confusion （ジブリパークの落とし穴：予約ミス・迷子・買い逃し） Visiting the Ghibli Park sounds like a dream — magical settings, exclusive merch, and your favorite characters all in one place. But for some travelers, the dream didn’t go quite as planned. Oops 1: Bought the Wrong Ticket! One visitor realized too late that their “Ghibli Museum” ticket didn’t get them into “Ghibli Park.” Two different places. Different cities. → Always double-check what you’re booking — and where. Oops 2: Missed That Limited Ghibli Merch “There were some cute plushies and Proco Rosso goods at the Tokyo Station store. But I didn’t buy them, thinking I’d see them again later. I never did.” → In Japan, limited items may be truly limited. Don’t expect stock to be the same at every store. Oops 3: Got Lost in the Magic (Literally) Ghibli Park is beautiful — but surprisingly confusing to navigate. Some areas lack English signs or clear paths. → Don’t count on Google Maps indoors.
