Bathhouse

The Bathhouse is a large bathhouse in Flower Heart.

## History

The Bathhouse was built by Seagindauz and FireKnight2018 after Seagindauz got a poster featuring the Bathhouse from classic Studio Ghibli film Spirited Away. Since Spirited Away was one of Seagindauz's all time favorite films, he built the Bathhouse in honor of the film.

## Construction

Out of all the builds in Flower Heart, The Bathhouse had one of the longest build times, with the exterior mainly being finished in only two days. The interior, however, was held off for a long time. From start to finish the Bathhouse took three months to complete. The construction started with the front of The Bathhouse, and the sides were built at a later date. The blocks mainly used for the outside were Red Concrete, Emerald Blocks, Gold Blocks, and Red Glazed Terracotta. The exterior worked as a large shell for the interior, which was mainly made of Spruce Wood, Dark Oak Slabs, and Yellow Glazed Terracotta. Many unplanned things were created during the construction of the interior such as extra windows and an office for planning on future builds.

## The Bathhouse

### Exterior

The Exterior of the Bathhouse is a large, grandiose Spirited Away inspired Japanese bathhouse. The outer walls are covered in Glazed Terracotta to represent rust with many large windows and a large wooden third floor made of Dark Oak wood and Glass.

### Ground Floor

The Ground Floor is an area for people to replenish themselves in the baths made out of Grey Concrete. The floor is made of Spruce Wood and the walls have Japanese art inspired trees on them made with Yellow Terracotta, Brown Terracotta, and Dark Green Terracotta. The Ground Floor also has many balconies made of Dark Oak Wood, and Spruce Wood. The walls are also covered in Birch Trap Doors to represent the interior walls of the Bathhouse in Spirited Away. On the top floor there is a bridge leading to the main gate and a ceiling made out of Yellow Glazed Terracotta with three blocks of Glowstone for light.

### Second Floor

The Second Floor of the Bathhouse is an inclosed area segmented into two halves with Birch Trap Doors, with baths inside for the guests.

### Top Floor

The Top Floor is a large wooden structure made out of Dark Oak and Glass Blocks. The interior of the top floor is a large wooden area with massive window and a patterned Glazed Terracotta structure in the middle, with stairs leading up to the top balcony area.

### The Office

The Office is a room made out of Spruce Wood and Bookshelves made with the purpose of talking about future builds. It is heavily inspired by Yubaba's office from Spirited Away. There is a front desk with a Quartz fireplace and multiple chairs to discuss new builds on.

## Spirited Away Inspirations

The entire Bathhouse was inspired entirely on the Bathhouse from Spirited Away with the exterior being directly ripped from the front of the movies Bathhouse, even the interior is directly ripped from the film. the top floor is much smaller than the one in the film due to the top floor in the Films Bathhouse being far larger than the one in Flower Heart. Due to this size difference, Yubaba's entire mansion floor is not included and only the office is included, which also had to be smaller.

## Trivia

• In the film a railroad runs directly next to the Bathhouse leading to the Swamp Bottom. Due to this, when FireKnight2018 built the railroad Seagindauz requested to build it next to the Bathhouse.

• The Bathhouse was considered to be the largest build in Flower Heart before the Observatory.

• The Bathhouse is considered by many including SteelFox444, who is also a Spirited Away fan, to be the best build in the city.
