2025 Bungotakada Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in June)

There is a delicious inn called "Umenoya Ryokan" in Bungotakada City, Oita Prefecture. You can eat Oita's soft-shelled turtle, Cape crab, conger eel, etc., but the whole set of tiger pufferfish is especially delicious. The thickly sliced ​​pufferfish sashimi, which is slightly pink, has a delicate and rich taste of the pufferfish itself, and it's so delicious that your cheeks will fall off😋 I was impressed with all the dishes, such as chawanmushi with milt, pufferfish sushi, and pufferfish innards. You can eat tiger pufferfish not only in winter but all year round, and it costs about 15,000 yen for one night and two meals. It's truly a rural joy😊 The baths and toilets are shared, but there is a good day-trip hot spring♨️ just a short drive away. Nagasaki-bana, where sunflowers bloom all over, and Matama Beach, where you can see the sunset, were also wonderful, making it a great trip to the Kunisaki Peninsula. It's a 50-minute drive from Oita Airport.

City streets are nice, but Showa-era streets are also a place where you can feel at ease, and I really like them😊There are several places around the country where old-fashioned streetscapes remain, but this time I'd like to introduce "Showa Town" in Bungotakada City, Oita Prefecture. As the name suggests, Showa-era towns remain there✨I deliberately went there at dusk when the streetlights were on🌇Many shops were closed, but that time of day was very atmospheric and I was able to enter a nostalgic space😌 [Introduction to Showa Town] Showa Town is a shopping street themed on the 1950s, and you can ride the bonnet bus that was in operation at the time for free and travel around the town🚍 *Each bus has a capacity of 25 people, first come first servedIf you go during the day, I also recommend eating your way around the shopping street!

Thought I had seen all the sunrises and sunsets Until I met Oita... Sharing two stunning scenic spots! ⛩️ Hachiman Nada Shrine Located in the center of Nada Beach, the main hall of the shrine is on an island off the coast, and the torii gate stands majestically on the reef. From a distance, it looks like a fairyland rising from the sea 🌊 The most special thing here is that two of the three gods are goddesses! Therefore, it is also known as the holy place of fate, love, and reunion 💕 In addition, I strongly recommend waiting for a sunrise! The moment the sun slowly rises from the sea level, with the torii gate standing in the sea, it is simply a stunning view! The orange morning sun makes the whole picture super dreamy ✨ solemn and sacred, really worth getting up early. 📍 Address: Nada 229, Kitsuki City, Oita Prefecture 🌅 Sunset at Matama Beach Exclusive to Oita Prefecture! The sunset can be seen falling into the sea level. On a clear evening, the whole sky is dyed crimson, the orange sunset is reflected on the water, and finally slowly sinks into the center, a dreamlike scene that is intoxicating. Because of its stunning sunset scenery, it has been reported by TV programs many times, and it has been selected as one of the 🏆 "Japan's Top 100 Sunsets". Even at the lowest tide, Matama Beach will not dry up completely, leaving a shallow tidal beach. 📸 Photography tips The shallow tidal beach and the golden water surface under the sunset are intertwined, capturing a dreamy photo! 📍 Address: Usuno, Bungotakada City, Oita Prefecture, Matama Beach This is probably the legendary stunning view! The moment the sun sets, the whole world is quiet 🌅

#tripflyingtochina #placestovisitoita #tennenji 📞Hello Hello, I heard it and answered. Let's start at Tennenji Temple on Kunisaki Mountain, Oita Prefecture. It is an ancient wooden temple built in 718 and flourished in the Heian period, 794-1185. It is a pilgrimage route through the Mumyo Bridge along the mountains and Kunisaki Valley, passing Kawanaka Fudo, a Buddha carved on a stone slab in the river. There are many more Buddha carved statues along the way. This temple also holds an important festival to ward off evil spirits, the Chujo-Onie Festival.

Umenoya Inn is famous for being frequented by gourmets. Power that keeps absorbing⭐️ Life force overflowing💪 Delicious soft-shelled turtle without a trace of odor is served one after another without reservation. The vinegared dish and chawanmushi are filled with soft-shelled turtle, and how much of the thick fin is there? The whole thing is full of the best soft-shelled turtle, right up to the egg dish at the end❤️ This time, it's 2 kilos of soft-shelled turtle⭐️ 1 kilo per person! It's rare to find a place that lets you eat soft-shelled turtle so heartily✨ The hotpot has meaty, bone-in meat! The deep-fried chicken and the rice porridge at the end of the meal also have the unique richness of the turtle, making you feel like you're in heaven✨ The rice porridge made with turtle broth is also irresistible😋 You can absorb a lot of the collagen-filled, bouncy turtle💓 Anshin-in is famous for its turtles, but it seems that 30% of the turtles consumed there are farmed in Bungotakada. And it's a low price of about 16,500 yen for one night and two meals. I'm planning a trip just to go to this inn. It's a rural area that can only be accessed by rental car, but if you're traveling to Oita, please make sure to stop by. The puffer fish dishes and castle flounder are also amazing❤️ The toilets and baths are shared. 📍Address: 4017 Kakachi, Bungotakada City, Oita Prefecture #Umenoya #Michelin Oita #Bungotakada #Oita #Oita Trip #0 Yen Trip November
