The tub, housed at the Huis Ten Bosch theme park in Nagasaki, weighs in at 154.2 kilograms (about 340 pounds). Made with 18-carat gold, the tub took eight months to build.

The tub is located at the newly reopened natural hot springs complex at the Dutch-themed park, which happens to be a popular destination among Chinese and South Korean tourists.
Is Gold Used in Dentistry?
Gold is one of the oldest materials used in dentistry and has been used for thousands of years to help restore teeth.
Gold has many advantages for restoring teeth: it’s biocompatible, meaning there’s an extremely small chance the body would react to it. It’s not considered to be toxic to the body, resists corrosion, and is durable and versatile.
Gold certainly has its advantages when used in modern dentistry, although it’s not as popular today as it was even decades ago. Dentists still use gold for the appropriate applications in dentistry to help protect and restore teeth, especially for fillings, inlays and onlays, and dental crowns.
