Onsen (Hot Spring) Etiquette
- • Wash before soaking: Clean completely at the seated shower stations before entering communal waters.
- • No towels in water: Keep your modesty washcloth folded on your head or placed by the bath ledge.
- • Tattoos: Historically prohibited; seek out verified tattoo-friendly facilities or reserve a private bath (Kashikiri).
Shinkansen (Bullet Train) Mastery
- • Digital Transit Cards: Load Suica or Pasmo onto Apple Wallet / Google Pay for instant subway tap-and-go.
- • Luggage Rules: Oversized suitcases (over 160 cm total dimensions) require a dedicated reservation seat.
- • Ekiben Culture: Buying a station bento and hot tea before boarding is a beloved national tradition.
Shrines vs. Temples
- • Shinto Shrines (Torii Gate): Bow once when entering. At the altar: Bow twice, clap twice, state your wish, bow once.
- • Buddhist Temples (Sanmon Gate): Do not clap. Stand quietly with hands pressed together in mindful reflection.
- • Temizuya Basin: Use the wooden ladle to rinse your left hand, right hand, and mouth before walking into the grounds.
