    Onsen - Japan 

    Traditionally in Japan visitors with Tattoos have not been welcome to use the many hot natural baths situated around Japan.

     

    This is because of an age-old association with organised crime. Polices are changing though and there are a few Onsen in and around Tokyo that will accommodate tattooed foreigners.
