📍 Oedo Onsen Monogatari

Japanese people love hot springs so much that when you come to Tokyo, you must visit this popular tourist attraction - Oedo Onsen Monogatari. Known as a “natural hot spring theme park,” in addition to providing a variety of hot springs, Oedo also has a food and shopping street that recreates the Edo period in Japan, where guests can experience festival games and authentic cuisine. It's a great place to meet teamLab Planet, Diver City Tokyo, and the Science Future Museum, so be sure to keep these on the same day when planning your trip!

Before entering the building, you must remove your shoes and place them in the locker provided next to the building. Afterwards, just go to the counter to choose the hot spring service you want, and the staff will provide detailed instructions and a locker room key.

After buying a ticket, you can rent a yukata next door. Choose the color of the yukata and the color of the belt from the top few sizes, all of them are beautiful! After choosing your own color, you can follow the instructions in the dressing room to change and place your personal items. I was always bothered to fasten my belt when entering the dressing room. Fortunately, there was an illustrated instruction in front of the locker. Once you're ready, you can enter the park!

As soon as you enter the park, you'll be dazzled. Everyone in the park wears yukata, matches the scene and lights from the Edo period, and feels like you're in the midst of a Japanese festival.

To spend in the park, you only need to scan the QR code on the bracelet, then pay at the counter before leaving, which is very convenient! The slot game on the side requires scanning a QR code to get game money. In addition to putting in dolls, there are also racing cars and various classic games. The two of us have played Taiko Master twice, and playing taiko in a yukata is even more atmospheric!

There are many restaurants in the park, with everything from set meals to snacks. I ordered a salmon tuna set meal. In addition to the rich salmon tuna rice, there were also tempura soup and side dishes. The ingredients were rich and I was very satisfied.

The hot springs are paid (separate baths and hot spring fish pools for men and women) and a free area (outdoor foot bath). Due to time constraints, and the fact that not every visitor can get used to the Japanese hot springs tradition of being completely naked, we only went to the foot bath area where the night was dim and enjoyed a quiet time. The soft lighting adds to the atmosphere at night, and the environment is quiet, suitable for relaxing the body and mind. When soaking in a foot bath, you can walk on a round stone to stimulate acupuncture points on the sole of the foot and improve blood circulation.

Finally, wearing a yukata, you should definitely take a picture in this unique venue. After visiting this place, I finally understand why Japanese people like to soak in hot springs so much. Here, you can relax your body and mind after a long day, and enjoy Tokyo again tomorrow!
