How it's used
Refers specifically to facilities designed for public bathing, which are relatively uncommon in modern Hong Kong compared to Japan. People usually use the term to describe overseas facilities or specific types of sauna and spa centers rather than local neighborhood amenities. It carries a slightly formal or descriptive tone when used in daily conversation.

Common mistake
Avoid confusing this with 浴室, which refers to a private bathroom inside a home or hotel room. Using 浴場 to describe your own home bathroom will sound very strange to native speakers.
