What are Mixed-Gender Onsen?
Mixed-gender onsen, known as "konyoku" in Japanese, are natural hot springs where men and women bathe together. This traditional practice has been part of Japanese culture for centuries, offering a unique and liberating experience for visitors.
Note: Due to local regulations, mixed-gender onsen do not exist in Tokyo. However, there are many options available in other regions of Japan.
