Hells of 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. #hellsofbeppu

Steamy Escapades in Beppu’s Jigoku Meguri 🔥♨️ Journey through Beppu’s legendary “Hells”—a series of dramatic hot springs with bubbling ponds, vivid colors, and otherworldly steam. This experience turns geothermal wonders into a fun, walkable adventure with unique local treats along the way! Start your Jigoku Meguri at the main Hell circuit (Hells of Beppu, 559-1 Kannawa). Arrive early (by 08:00) to explore each hell before crowds build—Umi Jigoku’s cobalt-blue waters are ultra photogenic from the viewing deck, and Oniishibozu Jigoku’s mud bubbles make for quirky selfies. The natural steam billowing everywhere creates ethereal, “insta-worthy” backdrops, especially at Chinoike Jigoku (blood pond). After marveling at the steamy springs, walk over to Jigokumushikobo Kannawa (closed on Wednesdays, check for hours) to sample “hell-steamed” cuisine. Their DIY steam-cooking experience is a must and using the geothermal steam for eggs, veggies, and pudding is both tasty and memorable—best tried after a chilly morning circuit! There is a public Foot Bath (Free) for public!! Just next to restaurant Don’t miss Okamotoya for their creamy steamed pudding; grab it to-go for a delicious photo op against the swirling steam vents. Nice view! Tips: Wear comfortable shoes—paths between hells are short but uneven. Bring a small towel (if not buy @ ¥300), as the steamy air can get muggy. Keep cash handy for tickets (each hells at ¥500 buy at counter) (¥1150 for all seven hells) and snacks, and stick to the marked walkways as steam pools are dangerously hot. Precautions: Don’t touch the hot water! Some hells can get slippery during rain, so watch your step. #Beppu #JigokuMeguri #JapanTravel #Onsen #HiddenGems#mytraveldairy
