💡 Tips for Visitors

Many establishments are cash-only, so bring sufficient yen. The public foot baths along the promenade are free to use—bring a small towel to dry your feet. English signage is limited, but staff at major ryokan and tourist information centers can provide basic assistance; visiting during weekdays offers a quieter, more relaxing experience.
