  • In today’s video we’re exploring Japan's scariest hot springs - The 7 Hells of Beppu in Kyushu Japan!
    Beppu’s Hells or Jigoku Meguri are the most popular attractions in Beppu. The hot spring Hells of Beppu are a nationally designated “Place of Scenic Beauty”- a truly natural wonder and scenic spot that you need to add to your Kyushu itinerary! In today’s Japan Travel Guide we’ll show you the best thing to do in Beppu, tour the Hells!
    Beppu is famous for being the onsen capital of Japan, having over 2000 onsens- its most famous of which are the Hells! These aren’t your usual onsens, being far too hot to bathe in, the Hells are for viewing only!
    In this Japan travel guide we take you to all 7 Hells, from a boiling geyser to stunning blue pools and even one bursting with crocodiles! While the striking colours and extreme temperatures are surprising, the most shocking thing about the Hells is their depth- some are over 100m deep!
    Oita prefecture - known as the onsen (hot spring) capital of Japan - is a popular destination in Japan, though it is often overlooked by tourists. We hope you visit Beppu and add Kyushu to your Japan travel plans as it really is a hidden gem and great place to visit in Japan!

    Awww, I sense and feel the sadness about the oniiyama hell ( crocodile ) myself too. I think I’ll skip that too. Although, I don’t like crocodiles but I think their situation there is quite sad.
    Thanks for sharing .

      Don't forget to check out Kifune Castle as well (if you have time)! It's very easy to get to, has amazing views of Beppu, and is located inbetween the 2 areas where the hells are! Plus its only 300 yen entry

    Super nice content guys! I love you honesty about how your feeling about a particular place!! Nice to see that it’s overall extremely positive, my partner and I will visit beppu for 1 day from Fukuoka with our JR pass although I fear it’s not enough. qq; do you feel like filming all of this content is something that gives more energy, reflection and enjoyment out of your travelling or do you wish sometimes you could just put down the camera to truly enjoy a space with each-other? Cheers! Thanks for the amazing content and I’m sure you’ll be looking back on this footage fondly in 10/30 years time.

    Hello - Were you on holiday or was this shot months beforehand? I have not visited Beppu, but it was pleasant to see it through your eyes. I am surprised that the crocodiles were piled together in the manner you described knowing that Japan has reverence to many animals in nature. I must say though, crocs if not competing for food seem to socially congregate in the wild. Are these crocs native to that area surviving in the mix of onsen and fresh water? Are they breeding them and then releasing them in a more natural setting? Great job to the both of you! Cheers.

      @@degozaru340 Apologies, I thought you were distraught seeing them in that contained setting. I am confused then. What were you upset about since you mention that they are revered and treasured? Also, processed shark meat must be more common in remote fishing villages or towns? I think the Chinese are more known with shark consumption (shark fin soup and other medicinals).

    how long did it take you to visit all 7 hells? and are they all in the same place that you can walk from one to another?

    • @wegoeast
      @wegoeast  Рік тому

      We spent one morning visiting the Hells and finished up by having lunch at Jigoku Mushi - a lunch hall where you can cook your own food using the onsen steam. Theyre split into 2 groups, the chinoike & tatsumaki hells are about a 20 min walk away from the remaining hells (or a few minutes by car). I'd also recommend visiting the Kifune Castle which is sort of on the way between the two groups of Hells

    How far are each hells from each other? Is there a bus that takes you to each place? Thank you !

    • @wegoeast
      @wegoeast  3 місяці тому

      So there are busses you can take:
      16, 16Aリ, 29
      But the busses are very infrequent and will add a load of time to your journey. I'd highly recommend renting a car if possible as you're not bound by timetables and can nip between places very quickly. Beppu is surprisingly big and public transport will add hours of journey time to your days!

    If you had to choose only three hells, which one would you choose?

    • @wegoeast
      @wegoeast  Рік тому

      It would have to be the first 3! They will give you a great range of the various types and they are by far the most impressive

    • @wegoeast
      @wegoeast  Місяць тому

      Just foot spas at the Hells / Jigoku I'm afraid! If you want to go Swimming, look up the "aqua garden" in Beppu, it's the biggest & best place to swim and it has ana amazing view!

  • @ks-sz7gk

    is 4 hours enough time to see the onsen hells?

    • @wegoeast
      @wegoeast  6 місяців тому

      If you're renting a car then yes, but it will be a bit tight, especially if you go on a weekend as it'll be much busier! Don't forget to add a stop at Kifune Castle, if you have time!
