表構えに前栽と外便所を備える古風な造りの三光湯は庶民の身近な銭湯です。浴室の中央には、お弁当箱のようなかわいい楕円形の湯船があります。湯船の縁にある低い段は播州らしい汲み出し洗いの腰掛け段です。
03. an old-fashioned Japanese-style bathhouse
An old wooden Japanese house has a small Japanese-style garden at the front and the toilet outside outside, The Sanko-yu bathhouse has such a building and people usually go bathing there. There is an oval bathtub which looks like a childish lunchbox at the middle of the bathroom. They sit on the low step that is the limb of the bathtub while washing their bodies. They can draw hot water from the bathtub. That is often seen in the area from Akashi to Himeji.
