'Tomonaga Bakery' Located in Beppu City, Oita Prefecture, this bakery was established in 1916 (Taisho 5) and is a beloved long-standing shop 🍞. It's always bustling with customers forming a line outside. Although I had known about this bakery for a while, I hadn't had the chance to visit until this trip to Oita. Finally, I made it there this time ¨̮♡. Before lining up, you receive a clipboard to write down your order. Once it's your turn, your number will be called, and you can enter the shop, hand over your order sheet, and receive your bread. Even if you didn't write it on the order sheet, you can still add more items to your purchase. As soon as you step inside, you're greeted by the delightful aroma of freshly baked bread 🍞. I purchased: ✤ Tsubu Anpan (red bean paste bread) ✤ Chocolate Bread ✤ Cheese French Bread ✤ "Wan-chan" (custard cream bread) ✤ Shokupan (mountain-shaped loaf bread) Everything looked so delicious that I wanted to buy it all! Some customers, knowing they might not get to visit often, were buying in bulk. The traditional-style bread was soft, fluffy, and incredibly tasty (◦ˉ ˘ ˉ◦).

Location: Umi Jigoku Hot Spring, Beppu, Japan Atmosphere: Known as the "Hell Springs" of Beppu, this area features seven mysterious hot springs. The boiling water and gases erupt fiercely from the ground. The largest spring is Umi Jigoku (Sea Hell), named for its striking blue color resembling the sea. This spring is 200 meters deep, and its blue hue is caused by the high concentration of cobalt. 📍Address: 559-1 Kannawa, Beppu, Oita 874-0045, Japan

#AprilGoodDestinations2025 Oita Prefecture is a hot spring prefecture, the most famous of which is Kannawa Onsen, but the Alum Onsen Yunohana (Onsen Hana), away from the crowds, is the most ancient and quaint, with all wooden houses having thatched roofs. The more hot spring flowers there are, the more rare minerals the hot spring contains, which means the quality of the hot spring is higher. Don’t be surprised if you see a tiny bit of hot spring flower in the Mingfan Hot Spring, because it takes a year for the flower to crystallize. Let these good trace elements stay in your body overnight, and they will absorb the remaining trace elements in your body through your pores, which is good for your body. Visit Yunohana in Yunosato, climb up to see Beppu Alum Bridge, eat Okamotoya pudding near Jigoku, eat udon noodles and then go to the hot spring maintenance land to soak in mud bath. It was a perfect trip.

#March Good Places 2025 For Beppu, it feels like many people will only stay for half a day, but in fact Beppu is worth a day, there are quite a few attractions. On the way to Yufuin you can take the Kintetsu Beppu Air Cable Car Beppu Ropeway. There are two observation decks, one side for viewing Beppu City and the other for viewing Yufudake. The cable car runs every 20 minutes and goes straight to the top of Mount Tsurumi at 1,375 meters. The temperature on the mountain is at least 10 degrees less than at the bottom, so you need to keep warm at the right time. This time I was not lucky, it suddenly rained heavily when I reached the top of the mountain, so I went to the trail to worship the Seven Gods of Fortune and returned quickly. Fortunately, I saw the cat stationmaster down the hill and made every customer happy

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Address: 48-1 Kita-ishigaki, Beppu City, Oita Prefecture Another attraction in Oita is the Oita Perfume Museum, which contains a lot of information on the production and history of perfume and fragrance. You can admire perfume collections and perfume history from all over the world. For example, the French steam distiller from the 19th century had to extract 500 ml of essential oil from 700,000 roses. Friends who are interested must come here! My favorite part is the "Perfumery Experience Workshop" where you can create your own perfume under the guidance of professional instructors! ! The price is not expensive, and your recipe will be recorded. If you want it again after use, you can contact the museum.

#March Good Places 2025 More than a thousand years ago the locals were still full of unknowns, finding the high temperature steam and hot springs naturally flowing from the ground, finding it difficult to get close and fearful so called "hell". “Rainwater becomes hot spring water after a long journey of up to fifty years.” The semicircular asymmetric modern building The Hell’s Hot Springs Museum is in the Iron Wheel Hot Springs area, five hells nearby. Compared to the seven hells, the museum closes later, so you can go to hell first and finally to the museum. The nearby snack shop is more famous, you can replenish your strength before walking. Explains the quality and formation of the springs of hell, introduces the origin of the hot springs – the origin of the name of the hot springs of hell It is rainwater falling into the soil, only 16% of the rainwater can fuse with minerals and become hot spring water. Finally there are the now popular immersive exhibitions.

#March Good Places 2025 Dragon Roll Hell is actually an intermittent hot spring Geyser that erupts hot water and steam every 30 to 40 minutes. The sight of high-temperature and powerful water spurting out is like a tornado howling with strong winds in hell. But because every once in a while there will be an outbreak, can be at the door when considering whether to enter the venue, can first ask the staff how long before the outbreak, if you have to wait too long or yourself in a hurry can also skip. If you decide to wait, you can walk to the shop to buy souvenirs, etc., but seeing the tornado spring depends on fate.

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 "Beppu Hell" is a must-visit attraction when you come to Beppu in Kyushu. You can see the mud, geothermal and hot springs that have been erupting for thousands of years. There are seven hot springs in Beppu Hell Tour: Sea Hell, Blood Pond Hell, Tornado Hell, White Pond Hell, Stove Hell, Oniyama Hell, and Oniishi Bouzu Hell. Among them, "Sea Hell" is the most worth seeing. If you don't have enough time, you can just buy a ticket to see Sea Hell, which is the most beautiful and costs ¥450. The Sea Hell is the largest of the seven hells. The spring water gushing out of it is azure blue and looks like the ocean. In fact, it is because there is a large amount of iron sulfate in the water. It looks like smoking sea water, but in fact it is 98-degree hot spring water. It's amazing! Next to the Sea Hell is a blood-red "Aka Pond" because the water is rich in iron. At first glance, it looks very much like the Blood Pond Hell, forming an extreme contrast with the azure Sea Hell. Both are worth seeing. #KyushuTravel #Beppu #Beppu Hell Hot Springs #Sea Hell

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 When you come to Beppu Hell Sea, of course you have to stay at a sea view hot spring hotel! Beppu Onsen Sky Bathhouse - Seikaiso, is a traditional Japanese hot spring hotel located on the Kitahama coastline, in the first row of sea views, facing Beppu Bay, with the most beautiful sunset on the sea. It is extremely comfortable to soak in the open-air bath in the room while watching the sunset. Seikaiso has a good transportation location.

Japan has the most hot springs in the world, with more than 3,000. It is said that about 120 million people come to the hot springs to soak in the hot springs a year. Therefore, there is a joke that if you don't "spend money" in Japan, your journey will be a waste. Beppu Onsen is one of the best in Japan. The number of springs and the amount of water flowing out of it rank first in Japan. The most famous sightseeing project is the "Beppu Hell Tour", which takes about 2 hours to visit the 7 hells (hot spring sources). The reason why it is called "Hell" is that more than a thousand years ago, the location of Beppu Hot Spring sprayed hot air, hot mud and hot water everywhere. People at that time were unwilling to go near this place, so they called this place "Hell". This is the origin of Beppu’s “Hell Hot Spring”. Beppu is a large hot spring area that has been turned into a tourist attraction. In addition to soaking in hot springs♨️, you can see hot spring observatories and steam rising from every corner. The hot steam constantly rising from the source and the smell of sulfur floating in the air create a hell-like atmosphere, so visiting the source is called visiting hell. The famous ones are the "Seven Hells", and the "Umi Jigoku" is a nationally designated scenic spot. It is located in a courtyard-like place and is named after the bright blue color of the water gushing out. The water transparency is very high and the water temperature reaches 98 degrees. "Onishi Monk Hell", the hot mud is constantly gushing out with gray bubbles that look like a monk's head. In addition, this place is called Onishi, hence the name. There are 6 streets here. If you go to different streets, you will see hot springs with different characteristics. "Ghost Mountain Hell" is also called Crocodile Hell because it houses more than 80 crocodiles. Crocodiles live in tropical areas, where waste heat from hot springs is used to create an environment suitable for crocodiles to survive. "White Pond Hell" feeds a large number of tropical fish. The "blood pool hell" is formed by the eruption and accumulation of hot red mud containing iron oxide and magnesium oxide. "Tornado Hell", the spring water will spurt intermittently every three to forty minutes, and the spray can last for about five minutes. The Japanese believe that hot springs are gifts from the gods. In order to continue the benefits of hot springs, some places will hold sacrifices to worship the gods. Among them, Beppu Hot Spring, which is famous for surrounding hell, is the most coveted. This is because there once lived a monk named Ichiban Shonin (1239-1289). It is said that he used the power of Buddhist scriptures to suppress hell and create hot springs for people suffering from diseases. The people of Beppu still enshrine his statue and hold a bathing ceremony every September to show their respect and gratitude to the master.
