Kiriwood Town

At night in Kiriwood Town, neon signs glow quietly. Soapland and fashion health signs line the streets, mixed with business hotels and izakayas. Local office workers and tourists pass through, lively but not noisy.

Kiriwood Town is a 10-minute walk from Takaoka Station, spreading across a corner of the downtown area. The district is compact, with shops clustered on the main street and back alleys. Restaurants and convenience stores nearby add convenience.

The core of the adult scene is soaplands, with about 20 shops. Prices range from ¥15,000 to ¥30,000 per hour, from high-end to budget. Fashion health shops number around 10, focusing on short sessions. Delivery health and pink salons are rare.

Soaplands are popular among foreign tourists. English-speaking shops are limited, but Japanese is fine. Some shops offer photo menus.

Access is on foot from Takaoka Station. Taxis are easy at night. Operating hours vary, but most are open from evening to midnight. Fridays and Saturdays are busy, so reservations recommended.

First-time visitors should check price lists outside shops and understand the system before entering. Soaplands start with a bath, so allow enough time. Many shops are cash-only, so bring cash.
