Onsen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (889 words)
An onsen (温泉; often indicated on signs and maps by 湯 or ゆ, for hot water, or with the symbol ♨) is a Japanese hot spring bath.
The onsen is basically a Japanese public bathhouse (sento) with natural hot spring water, and its history and etiquette are closely related to the sento.
Onsen water is often thought to have healing powers according to its mineral properties and onsens often have several different baths, each augmented by the addition of different minerals or the composition of the tub.
