[2025 Beppu Attraction] Travel Guide for Tatsumaki Jigoku (Updated Jul)

#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.

Wandering in Beppu Hell is like stepping into nature's most fantastic laboratory. The hot air surges from the ground, and the blood pool hell is like a mythical pool of fire, red as a painting, shocking. The white pool is clear but hot, like a spring left in the fairyland. Each hell has a unique color and smell, as if the earth is breathing in its most primitive posture. Standing in front of the Onishi Bouzu filled with sulfur steam, I feel the power and mystery of the earth, and I can't help but feel awe in my heart. This journey is both a visual shock and a touch of the soul. #5月好去处2025

#ThailandFlightEvent A day in a hot spring city with steam Two hours by train from Fukuoka. As soon as I got off at Beppu Station, I felt the hot air and the smell of sulfur tickling my nose. It felt like the whole city was a hot spring. The first place I visited was ‘Hyeolji Onsen’. Smoke rose above the hot spring water that was as red as blood, and the unrealistic scenery was overwhelming. The next place I went to was Umijigok, where the water was an unbelievable blue-green, and the steam that drifted over it was so beautiful. I stood there blankly for a long time, staring. At Kamadojigok, I tasted eggs steamed in hot spring water, and at Tatsumakijigok, I watched the geyser erupt. It felt like the earth was alive. The accommodation was a traditional ryokan. There was a private open-air bath in the room, and at night, I quietly soaked in the bath and looked up at the sky. I felt my body and mind warming up in the silent flow of time. Beppu was not just a hot spring, but a city remembered for its scenery, sounds, smells, and warmth. If I could go again, I would definitely take more than a day, and stay slowly. 📍 Beppu Hell Hot Springs Kannawa area, Beppu City, Oita Prefecture

#FukuokaTravel #FukuokaBeppu #FukuokaPlacesToVisit #FukuokaTravelRecommendations Fukuoka – Beppu Hell Hot Springs Travel Review It takes about 2 hours from Fukuoka to Beppu by JR train. Beppu, where I arrived while looking at the scenery outside the train window, was a place that perfectly fits the description of ‘Hot Springs City’. Chinoike Hell – Blood-red Hot Springs The first place I arrived at was ‘Hyeolchi Hot Springs’. The water was really blood-red and boiling. I exclaimed ‘Wow’ as soon as I saw it, and I also bought skin ointment and soap made from the hot spring water. Umi Hell – Blue Dragon’s Breath This place is blue on the contrary. Smoke was rising from the clear and deep blue-green hot spring water, and I was completely overwhelmed by the unrealistic color. There is a garden inside, so I took a walk, and you must eat the pudding steamed in the hot spring. It is really delicious! Kamado Jigoku – Fun like a set This place is small but diverse. The bubbling gray, blue, and white hot springs are all gathered in one place, so it was great for taking pictures, and I also ate eggs made from the hot spring water. Tatsumaki Jigoku – The power of the geyser If you wait, the sight of the water gushing out with a 'pong!' is spectacular. The fountain that bursts briefly at the end of the wait is a must-see. Overall Highly recommended for solo or leisurely couples. A must-visit place for hot spring enthusiasts. It was a journey that melted my eyes, heart, and body. 📍 Location information Beppu Jigoku Meguri 〒874-0000 Ōita, Beppu, Kannawa

#Overseas travel Tatsumaki Jigoku (Whirlwind Hell) is a geyser in the Beppu hot spring area of ​​Japan. It is a place where hot spring water gushes out like a fountain once every 50 minutes. When the hot spring water comes out, people gather in groups of three or four in front of the geyser as if watching a play, and it is a fun place to watch the hot spring water gushes up toward the sky with a loud noise. Please stop by at least once when traveling to Beppu hot springs. Location: 782 Noda, Beppu, Oita 874-0016 Japan

#0yentripnovember Tatsumaki Jigoku is a natural geyser that erupts hot water at regular intervals. It would normally erupt about 30m, but it is covered with stones so it can be observed safely. It only erupts for a few minutes, so there is little risk of missing it. Personally, I would have liked to see it without the stones covering it, even though it may be dangerous. However, it must have been very difficult to create the stone cover, so watching the eruptions while thinking about that will make you feel nostalgic.

"Tatsumaki Jigoku" is a geyser that erupts every 30 minutes!! There is a viewing area with many places to sit, so I was able to enjoy it at my leisure👍️ When it erupted, cheers went up, it was really impressive, I was moved by the heat all at once✨ There was a souvenir shop and a snack shop right next to it, and the sudachi squash I had there was very refreshing and delicious♪ [Name] Tatsumaki Jigoku [Address] 782 Noda, Beppu City, Oita Prefecture 874-0016 #0 yen travel autumn #Oita sightseeing #Oita trip #Domestic travel

#Fukuoka Attractions 🕰️Opening hours: 8am to 5pm 📍Address: Beppu Hell Hot Spring Area, 5 minutes walk next to Blood Pool Hell 💰Average consumption per person: Beppu Hell Hot Spring Package included 💞Reason for recommendation: Tornado Hell is the most special attraction of Beppu Hell Hot Spring, it is an intermittent spring, every 30-40 minutes will erupt, so to sit still to watch the performance, the water temperature is very high when the eruption, and you can see the protective rocks have turned yellow

⛩️ Beppu is located in Oita Prefecture, Japan, and is the second largest city in the prefecture. It is famous for its hot springs, with over 200 public hot springs throughout the city. The abundance and variety of spring sources are also among the world's most remarkable. These hot springs are known as 'hells' due to their appearance and temperature, which give a terrifying and spectacular impression. There are eight major 'hells' hot springs in the Beppu area, including the Sea Hell, Oniishi Bozu Hell, Mountain Hell, Shaven Head Hell, Demon Mountain Hell, White Pond Hell, Blood Pond Hell, and Tornado Hell. Each 'hell' has its own characteristics and temperature, with some of the springs reaching temperatures around 98 degrees Celsius, making them for viewing rather than bathing♨️. Among them, 'Sea Hell' is the largest of the eight springs. ⛩️ At the Beppu Hells, you can see the steamy mist of the hot springs every day. If you happen to visit on a foggy day, it feels as if you are in the midst of the TV series 'The Mist'. The view from above is even more dreamlike and fantastic.

Located next to the Blood Pool Hell, Dragon Roll Hell is also one of the seven soups of Beppu Hell that I personally recommend a must-visit. Dragon Roll Inferno is also a nationally designated scenic spot in Japan and is a designated natural monument of Beppu. The geysers spew hot water and steam at certain intervals, and compared to other geysers in the world, Beppu's Dragon Roll Ticket has attracted much attention for its short intervals. The intermittent time is approximately once within 1 hour, each time about 10 minutes, so you can allow time to sit in the Dragon Roll Hell and wait for the geyser to emerge

#JapanTravel - Address: 782 Noda, Beppu City, Obihiro Prefecture 874-0016 - How to get there: Take a taxi from Beppu University Station or a bus from Beppu City - Nearby attractions: Sea Hell, Blood Hell, Hyotan Onsen - Nearby hotels: New Tsuruta Hotel in Beppu City - Rating: 5.0/5.0 Now, this is the last of the Beppu Hell pilgrimage. In fact, there are several more hells, but the major hells are Sea Hell, Blood Hell, and the Whirlwind Hell that I will introduce this time. If the first two hells tempted people with their colors, this one is attractive because of the strong water stream that gushes out intermittently. The water gushes out at exactly 10-minute intervals, which is a natural wonder. The water stream is so strong that there is a rock covering the water stream. The characteristic of this place is that the entrance is a souvenir shop, and there are large seats like an open-air theater, so you can watch from afar. The hell itself is the smallest, but the overall scale is the largest. Highly recommended! #Beppu travel #Hot place #Recreation travel

It usually erupts every 30-40 minutes for about 6-10 minutes. #Beppu #Hot Spring
