Willows over a canal, wooden inns along one street, and everyone out strolling in yukata after dark.
569 dining spots and 243 places to stay are counted in 豊岡市 — the bath is one part of the evening, not the whole of it.
Every property listed here has a private bath — a reservable private bath or an open-air bath in your own room — so tattoos are a non-issue, and so is privacy.
