銭湯のルーツは海水浴！？

Does the Japanese tradition of public bathing originate from sea bathing?

海水浴場も公衆浴場である銭湯も同じ浴場という字を書きます。歴史をたどると日本の海水浴は、もともと健康づくりのために行われたのが始まりでした。

The Japanese words meaning“swimming beach" (海水浴場) and "public bath" (公衆浴場) contain the same characters, respectively. Originally,the Japanese culture of sea bathing started for the enhancement of people's health.

日本初の公認 海水浴場となった二見浦 (海水医療鉱泉として明治政府公認)

Futamiura as Japan's first designated swimming beach.(Once officially designate by the Japanese government in Meiji period (1868-1912) as a beach for thalassotherapy.)

明治15(1882)年、二見浦は日本初の公認海水浴場として開設され、健康や病気回復によいとして潮浴び（温水浴・冷水浴）が行われていました。

The Futamiura Beasch is known as the first swimming beach designated by the Japanese government on 1882, and people enjoyed bathing (both in warm and cod water) for health enhancement and recovery from sickness.

Since ancient times, the Futamiura Beach has been a holly place where pilgrims purify themselves before their visit to the Grand Shrine of lse known as “lse Jingu." We offer you bath services using seawater, which is brought from the Futamiura Beach twice a day (namely in the morning and evening), so that you can also purify yourself prior to your visit to lse Jlngu.

Traditionally, we welcome our guests with sacred hot water (Misogi-no-yu) before they make a vist  to Ise Jingu.
