Umi Jigoku

Jay Dubya in the last week

This is a good stop for something interesting from planet earth. You can pay by the location 1/7 but honestly the last two are such a hassle to get to by bus with wait times and crowds I would advise to just skip them unless you can do a cab or have a private car. The site overall is very clean and interesting; its all self guided self paced. I did not care for the crocodile enclosures because I am personally against zoo type environments. The other 4 at the top were all interesting in thier own way. The greenhouse seemed overlooked but was quite nice as well. The wife likes the stamp game for her souvenir book and they were good stamps by her report.

It has beautiful garden with 3 different color ponds in one place. There’s a big enough gift shop as well as small cafeteria where u can buy some snacks, too.

One out of nine beppu’s tour - Umi Jigoku. The zen garden has a magnificent landscape. What is extraordinary is the cool hot spring and light blue. It looks like it’s not hot, but it’s 98 degrees Celsius. It was piping hot. There’s also a red hot spring towards the exit area and mini Tori gates. The souvenir shop is located in the middle of the place and accessible before the light blue. They have unique souvenirs from candies, biscuits, stationery and toys. The place has a cafe as well, perfect to take a rest from the tour. I got the blue soda drink. It’s excellent and refreshing. A wonderful and interesting place to visit when visiting Beppu, either for a day trip or a few days stay.

A beautiful onsen that is far too hot to enter, though you can admire it for its beautiful colours and the massive plumes of steam that it shoots into the sky. ¥2200 for entrance tickets to visit all the onsen like this in the area.

There is a special exhibition in each “hell”. In this most visited “hell”, the special exhibits are royal water lilies, which bloom at our visit on November 14, 2023. The greenhouse is powered by the “hell”. I love water lilies. These royal ones with big green crowns are gems in this “hell”. I was so happy to see these water lilies.
