Kurama Onsen


Kurama Onsen
Originally uploaded by juanerubio.
Kurama is a small town, north of Kyoto, famous for its natural hot springs, called 'onsen' in japanese and very popular among japanese people and tourists.

In this picture, Andres and Alberto are enjoying a relaxing bath in the open air version of the 'onsen', which is called 'rotenburo'. The day was rainy and cold, perfect for this kind of activity :)

Notice a couple of typical details: a japanese guy with a small wet towel on his head and a (sort of) bucket, used to pour hot water on oneself.
