Kamado Jigoku, or "Cooking Pot Hell," is one of Beppu’s famous Jigoku Meguri (Hell Tour) spots. It features multiple colorful geothermal ponds—ranging from deep blue to rust red—surrounded by steam vents and bubbling mud. Named after the demon statue at the entrance, this site also offers unique footbaths, steamed egg tastings, and impressive photo spots. It’s a thrilling example of volcanic activity made accessible for all visitors.

Kannawa Onsen

Kannawa is a historic hot spring district in Beppu, known for its dense steam rising from vents across town, giving the area a mystical atmosphere. Visitors can walk freely through its narrow lanes lined with traditional inns (ryokan), steam-cooking huts (jigokumushi), and small eateries.

Yufuin Area

Nestled at the foot of Mount Yufu, Yufuin is a picturesque hot spring town famous for its relaxing atmosphere, boutique shopping streets, and stunning views. As you stroll along Yunotsubo Kaido, you’ll find charming local shops selling handmade crafts, local sweets, and artisanal goods. Don’t miss the peaceful Kinrin Lake, a small but enchanting lake where warm spring water meets cooler mountain water, creating a mystical morning fog. With art museums, footbaths, and lovely cafés lining the streets, Yufuin is a perfect blend of rural charm and refined culture.

Mamedamachi Shopping Street

【Sapporo Brewery Course ONLY】Step back in time in Mamedamachi, a well-preserved Edo-period merchant town located in Hita, Oita Prefecture. The cobbled streets are lined with traditional wooden townhouses (machiya), many of which now house specialty shops, sake breweries, and quaint cafés. Known for its retro charm, Mamedamachi is a favorite spot for travelers who love discovering handmade sweets, regional crafts, and historic architecture. This nostalgic setting offers a slow, immersive look at everyday life in old Japan.
