- Don't enter a bath without taking a shower — Before entering the public bath, please take a shower to make your body clean. This is the designated space for showering before entering the main bath.
- Don't soak your towel in the bath — People usually use towels to clean their body, so it's not super clean. If you soak this towel in the bath, it contaminates the water. Keep your towel out of the bath water.
