The best of Hakata and Beppu

📍 Address:
Hells of Beppu (Jigoku Meguri), Kannawa & Shibaseki area, Beppu, Ōita, Japan
💖 Reasons to Recommend:
Felt like another planet—steam roaring out of the ground, a surreal blood-red pool, and a muddy spring that bubbles and plops in slow motion. Easy paths, clear signs, and great viewpoints for photos. Go early: cooler, fewer people, and the steam looks epic in the morning light.
🕰️ Business Hours:
Morning–late afternoon (varies by season—check on the day)
🏞️ Ambiance/Facilities:
Clean walkways, rest areas, souvenir/snack shops, free toilets, and plenty of photo spots. Sulfur smell is there but not overwhelming.
💰 Average Price per Person:
¥2,000–¥2,500 for the multi-hell pass (individual sites ~¥400–¥500 each)
🗓️ Itinerary Scheduling:
Spend 1.5–2 hours. Start at Umi Jigoku (blue pool), then Chinoike Jigoku (red pool), and Oniishibōzu Jigoku (mud bubbles). Pair with Beppu Ropeway or a relaxing onsen afterward.
⭐ Rating:
5/5 — short, unforgettable stop.
