Thank you for choosing our tour at the East Garden of the Imperial Palace on the 27th of November. We welcomed 20 guests from USA, UK, Belgium, and Indonesia. I hope all of you enjoyed and shared interesting conversations with us during the tour. As promised, group photos and snapshots are attached to remember the fun times we had.
One of Japan`s attractiveness is the natural hot springs. There are about 3,000 hot springs throughout the country. The hot spring water contains various minerals and provides a lot of medical benefits such as stimulating blood circulation and increasing metabolism and others. The water comes in different colors depending on the water quality. Although most Japanese hot spring water are colorless and transparent, some have colors such as milky white, red, black, brown and emerald green. Onsen with open- air- baths called “roten-buro” has become popular among people of all ages. We can enjoy the open-air bath, feeling beautiful nature throughout all four seasons. For example, birds tweeting, colorful autumn leaves and even snowy landscape. Please have a relaxing experience and enjoy the health benefits of soaking in open-air-baths.
Once again, thank you so much for joining us on our tour. We always make efforts to improve our tours and highly appreciate your feedback on our TripAdvisor/Facebook etc. Your comments motivate us to continue our volunteer activities. Please tell your family and friends about how you enjoyed our tour. Next time you’re in Tokyo, please join another one of our tours (Asakusa, Meiji Shrine/Harajuku, Ueno Park). We’d love to see you again.
