お風呂 (ofuro) is a traditional Japanese bath that is an important part of Japanese culture. It is typically a deep soaking tub filled with hot water, allowing people to relax and unwind. Many homes in Japan have a separate bathing area, often with a shower for rinsing off before entering the tub. In addition to home baths, public baths called 銭湯 (sentō) are popular in Japan. These facilities offer communal bathing experiences and often feature various types of baths, such as herbal or mineral baths. Bathing in an お風呂 is seen as a way to promote relaxation and well-being.
