Find the marked place

In Tennoji Sakai, look for a marked smoking area, store-side ashtray, or station smoking room. If the place is not clearly marked, it is better to wait than to guess.

Do not smoke while walking

Walking with a lit cigarette can bother people behind you and may be unsafe in crowded streets. Stop only where smoking is clearly allowed.

Use the ashtray properly

Put cigarette ends into an ashtray or portable ash case. Do not leave ash or filters near vending machines, planters, drains, benches, or hotel walls.

Respect hotel areas

Hotel entrances, balconies, corridors, and room windows can have strict rules. Ask the front desk for the smoking area instead of assuming outdoor spaces are allowed.

Late-night courtesy

After smoking in Tennoji Sakai, step away from the entrance, lower your voice, and keep the route clear for other customers, residents, and guests.
