Une Activité Culturelle

La culture du ‘Onsen’ (温泉 autrement dit les sources chaudes) est peut-être quelque chose d’assez étranger pour nous français surtout si l’on prend en compte que les Japonais partagent leur bain nus! A vrai dire au Japon cette pratique est plus que régulière puisque les Japonais viennent s’y détendre plusieurs fois par mois et même par semaine pour certains.

Les bienfaits pour le corps sont divers suivant les sources mais une chose est sûr c’est que le Onsen est souvent l’une des raisons pour le choix d’une destination de voyage ou d’un ‘Ryokan’ (旅館, auberge traditionnelle). Voyons voir comment profiter de cette activité ‘relaxante’.

Différentes Façons d’en Profiter

Hakone Kowakien Yunessun

Un bon exemple d’endroit où profiter de ces sources chaudes : le Kowakien Yunessun! L’attraction principale du lieu est le bain extérieur → Quoi de mieux que de profiter de l’air frais extérieur tout en se détendant dans un bain chaud. Difficile d’expliquer à quel point cette pratique vous détendra!
