At A Tokyo Mud Bar You Sit In Mud And Drink

It’s all rather self-explanatory.

This is the Gata Bar. It just opened in Tokyo’s Aoyama for a limited time. The bar features mineral-rich clay from Saga Prefecture, which holds a mud Olympics during the summer so locals can have fun and cool down.

The bar recommends bringing a change of clothing (such as swimwear) as well as a towel.

The bar is also serving sake and beer from Saga.

The Gata Bar will be open to the end of July.
