Rotenburo: Bathing in the Open Air.
In Japan’s hot spring culture, open-air bathing in a rotenburo is a particularly special experience.
Rotenburo are open-air baths that allow bathers to enjoy the distinct experience of taking a dip outside among the elements. Many rotenburo take advantage of stunning natural settings, such as a view of mountains or the sea or the peaceful sounds of a forest, releasing bathers from the cares of the everyday world.
