Japan: sento/onsen and naked man festival

[David B]

Some neat videos I saw on YouTube about nudity in Japan. The naked man festival isn't total nude but you wear a fundoshi. Thought I would share them

Hello everyone.  I just wanted to say that I think the Onsens are pretty cool.  I have been living in Japan do about two years now and the Onsen is the only place where you are going to see other nude people.  Japan has no naturists culture that I have been able to find.  Many of these places do not allow tattooed people so as a tattooed American my visits to Onsens have been few.  I hope other people find better places than I have.
