Understanding the Japanese Bath Tradition

The Japanese bath or bathroom originated as a short, steep-sided wooden bathtub. These types of baths are found all over Japan in apartments, houses, and traditional Japanese inns but are now usually made out of stainless steel or plastic. A Japanese bath differs from a Western bathtub by being of a deeper construction, typically in the region of 25 inches. The sides of the Japanese bath are generally square rather than being sloped, and they typically have no overflow drainage. The traditional pot-shaped cast iron bath was heated by a wood-burning stove built-in below them. Furo specifically refers to the bath with water and is usually left filled with water overnight, and in some Japanese households, the water is reused or recycled for washing clothes the next day. As in the West, it was the custom for more than one member of the family to use the same bathwater and therefore, for the Japanese, they needed to be completely clean before entering the bath.
