Ashi-yu oot bath

Ashi-yu means foot bath.

I went to the Ashi-yu café as a first time.

It was late at night but many salary-man came in to relax .

Those bath culture is quite popular in Japan.

Ashi-yu orinigaly came from the hot spring.

People dip their feet in to the hot spring water and get easy treatment.

I was exhausted that night but some how, after dipping my feet for 45min in the hot water, all over my body got hot and felt so ease.

They serve so many different kinds of herbal tea.

Me and my friends played board game mean while .

Now I know why “old man in Hungary likes playing chess in the bath”.

I’m addicted to it ,, I think I might take massage as well next time..
