There's an umbrella stand here. If it's wet, please put it in that bag.

Gesture & etiquette

Hold up your umbrella.

At traditional buildings like temples, ryokans, or some restaurants, shoes and wet umbrellas are removed at the entrance. Always use provided umbrella bags for wet umbrellas to avoid making the floor slippery.
