Seoul · South Korea

The experience

About this experience

The jjimjilbang is the modern form of Korea's traditional bathhouse and sauna culture. You move between hot pools, steam rooms and saunas at different temperatures, and tired muscles let go. Sharing the common rest area with locals is one of the closest views of everyday Korean life.

The bathing areas have their own rules, so ask the staff if it is your first time. Do not stay long in very hot rooms, drink plenty of water, and take care if you have heart or blood pressure concerns. It is better not to go straight after a meal.
