This is a common travel logo in Japan. But do you know what does it mean? In fact I thought it might be a noodle restaurant but actually it means hot spring. If you can see this logo, it means there is a hot spring for tourists.

I guessed that it must be something to do with heating and I was on the right track.

Yeah, there are many hot springs in Japan. And actually from the travelling TV program you can see some monkeys also soak in the hot spring in winter. That's so funny.

@youless we live just a few kilometers from the Province of Laguna outside Metro Manila, the town there Los Baños have hot springs that's why there are lots of resorts. Countries with volcanoes have hot springs and we also have plenty

@louievill How nice to hear that. In fact I am not very familiar with your country yet besides the capital. My colleague's brother travelled to an island there but it may not be very famous now. The scenery and beach are beautiful and the seafood has nice price. I am sure there are more islands like that in your country, the problem is I need to update it myself

It is better that we learned it. Otherwise we will look like silly when we travel to Japan

@youless it could be because we have a similar symbol for coffee.

I know what that logo is because I watched too much Anime and many anime always have an episodes where characters go to hot springs and a male character will accidentally go to where the women are bathing and they will beat him up.

I watched Japanese cartoons when I was a child but I hadn't seen this logo yet.
