> John > some onsen are not associated with hot springs, but have hot sand instead. Yes, but they are rare case. Most of onsen are hot water bath. So might be represented by adding following sub_tags.
bath:sand_bath=[yes|no] ; if the bathing amenity is sand bath (Suna_yu) or not. bath:sauna=[yes|no] ; if the bathing amenity has sauna facility. (Use it when the main function of the amenity is public_bath. consider using "amenity=sauna" when the main purpose of the amenity is sauna) May seem they are too trivial, but they have an importance to classify onsen amenities. And could be expanded for further trivial expression in the future. (e.g. "effect of the bath", "bath:color", "bath:drinkable", "kakenagashi" or etc.) Cheers. 2014-03-08 2:43 GMT+09:00 John F.
