TRAVEL GUIDE

Oita

Beppu steam, Yufuin streets and the Kunisaki Peninsula

For a hot spring trip, explore the steaming geothermal landscape of Beppu or spend time in Yufuin beneath the mountains. The Kunisaki Peninsula adds a different dimension with temples and rural scenery. These are distinct areas rather than one short circuit; choose your main stop and verify the local connections before setting out.
