A local would say...

A working public bathhouse redesigned as contemporary art — complete with an elephant in the room.

For a bathing experience like no other, soak in this colourful fusion of Japanese sentō tradition and contemporary art designed by Ōhtake Shinrō. Yes, there really is an elephant in the room. It's a working public bathhouse, not just an installation, which means you'll be soaking alongside locals and fellow travellers in water that's warm, art that's wild, and an atmosphere that's uniquely Naoshima. Look for the building with palm trees out front, near Miyanoura port.
