Earphones on, eyes closed: An Outdoor Hot Spring in the Snow | Japanese Bedtime Story

Lanterns of Japan: bedtime stories that take you to Japan. Put on your earphones, close your eyes, and visit Japan before you sleep. Follow for your next night in Japan.

Your first outdoor hot spring, on a snowy night at an inn in the mountains: warm water, falling snow and the deep quiet of a snowy night. The inn, the night and the people are imagined; the bathing customs described draw on Japanese government and tourism guidance, along with travel guides. This is an invitation to rest, not a promise of sleep.
