About the bath

Basically, ACE program participants can take a bath at the house of the host family. If you wish, we can arrange to take you to a public bath around the neighborhood. Please be aware that this may cost around 1,000 yen for 2 times, so make sure to have change ready for payment.If you choose to use the public bath, you may have to take a bath with local people, so please understand the following bathing etiquettes. Here are some tips:

- Please wash your body before getting in the bath.- Use quiet voices, no big noises.- Towels are left in the locker room.- You must not wear anything when entering the bathing area.- Dry off before entering the dressing room.

*Be sure you are waering underwear (i.e. t-shirt, tank top, etc.) on June 19th, because we are going to have a Yukata wearing experience on that day and it is prohibited to waer one if you are naked.
