I forgot the name of a public bath in Osaka, but the answer was in my photo ♨️
Near Morinomiya in Osaka, there is a public bath that is famous in the Kansai area.
It is a local neighborhood bath.
You can go in for about 700 yen.
It is not a shiny new bath.
But it is warm, and it calms your heart.
It was a place that felt like "this is a Japanese sento."
But there is one problem.
I completely forgot the name.
I was going to write, "People of Osaka, please tell me," and when I looked back at my photo...
The answer was on the sign.
It is "Pearl Onsen (Pearl-yu)."
(I had AI look this part up.)
Pearl Onsen is an old-style public bath that a company called "Yutonami-sha" took over in 2024.
Yutonami-sha is a company famous in Kansai for taking over and saving public baths that are about to close.
I think this is why I remembered it as "famous in Kansai."
Photos are the best notebook for forgetful me.
