Explore Japan by Region
Your guide to adult entertainment areas across Japan
Japan is a country of diverse regions — and each one has its own rules, culture, and attitudes when it comes to adult entertainment. Whether you’re planning a trip to Tokyo or exploring rural Japan, this section will help you understand what’s available (and where).
Here’s a breakdown by region:
🏙️ Kanto Region(Tokyo, Yokohama, Saitama, etc.)
The heart of modern Japan. Tokyo alone offers everything from high-end soaplands in Yoshiwara to discreet massage parlors in Shinjuku and Ikebukuro.
Foreigners are generally welcome in certain shops, but not all — especially in soaplands. Always check in advance or use foreigner-friendly guides.
🌾 Tohoku Region(Sendai, Aomori, Akita, etc.)
A quieter, more rural region, but major cities like Sendai have “fashion health” and delivery health services.
Language barrier may be higher, and some venues may be more conservative about foreign guests.
🌄 Kansai Region(Osaka, Kyoto, Kobe, etc.)
Known for its vibrant nightlife. Osaka’s Tobita Shinchi is one of Japan’s most unique red-light districts.
Many shops in Osaka are more relaxed and open to foreigners, especially in areas like Nipponbashi.
🏯 Chubu Region(Nagoya, Niigata, Kanazawa, etc.)
Nagoya is the main hub for adult services in this region. Smaller cities may have soaplands and pink salons, but foreigner access is limited.
Nagoya, however, has some international-friendly options.
🏖️ Kyushu Region(Fukuoka, Kumamoto, Nagasaki, etc.)
Fukuoka is known for its lively Nakasu entertainment area. Many services here cater to Japanese clientele, but some delivery health services accept foreigners.
Respectful behavior and basic Japanese will go a long way.
🏔️ Hokkaido Region(Sapporo, Hakodate, etc.)
Sapporo has a large red-light district called Susukino, which includes soaplands, health services, and hostess clubs.
Susukino is one of the most foreigner-tolerant areas in Japan for adult entertainment.
🏝️ Okinawa Region(Naha, etc.)
More laid-back and tropical, Okinawa’s adult scene is smaller and more local. Services may be limited and rarely cater to foreigners.
Each area page in this section will dive deeper into what services are available, how to access them as a foreigner, and what to avoid.
