Hello, fellow travel lovers!
今回はお茶処・狭山市で話題（？）のお茶風呂が楽しめる日帰り入浴施設「狭山の茶湯」に行ってきました🍵
The moment you enter, it's all about tea!

As soon as I stepped into the spacious lobby, I thought, “Whoa, this place is huge!”
On the way to the bath, I caught a whiff of fragrant tea in the air. My excitement shot through the roof!
I took a deep breath and thought, “This must be the sacred land of Sayama tea!” Yep, I totally inhaled as much of that scent as I could (lol).
Ready, set… Tea bath!
Here we go—the grand bath awaits!
When I reached the main bath, I imagined a vibrant green tub with tea leaves floating around… But in reality? Just a slight green tint. And the amazing tea aroma? Nowhere to be found! 🫢

Still, even without the scent, I was already in full-on relaxation mode.
I could see Lake Tama—it had a bit of a Moomin Valley vibe!
If I can see out… can they see in?
This thought suddenly crossed my mind: "If I can see out this clearly… maybe people out there can see in too!?" 😅
Let’s just assume we’re safe and enjoy the bath!
Sauna + tea-themed goodies = total refresh!
Okay, I’ll admit—the tea scent in the bath didn’t quite live up to the hype. But the sauna was great, and with that relaxing view, I was completely refreshed. 🌿
At the gift shop in the lobby, I picked up a Sayama tea bath soak and a fragrant mist spray that smells just like brewed tea.
They’re now my go-to items when I need a quick mood boost at home!
