Make the Most of Your Beppu Stay

Cultural attractions and geothermal wonders

Beppu distinguishes itself as Japan's onsen capital, where more than 2,000 hot springs produce the nation's highest volume of thermal water. The city's defining feature is its dramatic "steamscape"—thick white plumes rising from hundreds of active vents throughout the urban grid, creating an otherworldly atmosphere documented since the 8th century. The famous Jigoku Meguri (Hell Tour) showcases 7 spectacular geothermal springs, from cobalt blue waters to boiling red mud, designated as Places of Scenic Beauty. Architectural highlights include the 1938 Takegawara Onsen with its traditional karahafu-style roof.

Cuisine and where to stay

The city's geothermal resources extend into its culinary identity through jigoku-mushi cooking, where restaurants use thermal steam to prepare local ingredients. Upscale options include Atelier at the ANA InterContinental for French cuisine and Kikusaiko's kaiseki featuring Bungo beef. The Motomachi district near Beppu Station provides the most practical base, with direct train access and the city's densest concentration of hotels and nightlife along Yasaka Street.

Getting around and day trips

Buses connect the station to thermal districts like Kannawa, though taxis offer efficiency across the hilly terrain. The Beppu Ropeway ascends Mount Tsurumi in 10 minutes for panoramic bay views. Nearby Yufuin's art museums, Kitsuki's samurai districts, and Usuki's stone Buddhas make excellent day trips, all reachable within an hour by train.
