Relax In One of The Famous Japanese Hot Springs in Tokyo<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Many foreign tourists come to Japan with a to-do list and it is highly likely that having an onsen experience is in it! However, most people think that they could only experience this activity in the rural areas of Japan, and that is definitely not true! Foreign tourists now can also experience this in cities, such as Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka. In Tokyo though, there is one which is rather popular in the Shinjuku ward, which is called Thermae-yu.<\/p>\n
