2025 Oita Prefecture Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

The shortest route connecting Kyushu and Shikoku! Boarding time is 1 hour and 10 minutes. [National Route Kyushu Ferry]🚢 Did you know that you can go directly from Kyushu to Shikoku, and from Shikoku to Kyushu? You can actually cross in a flash✨ It connects Saganoseki, Oita Prefecture, and Misaki, Ehime Prefecture. What's more, even though it's a boat, it's treated as a national highway😊 It's a national highway that is a series of roads, including over the sea⭐️ You can board the boat if there is space available without a reservation, but if you make a reservation online, you can get your ticket by just holding up the QR code! The great thing is that if you purchase a round-trip ticket, you can freely change your return trip after the ticket is issued! If you suddenly want to stop by a tourist spot or go home earlier than planned, just go to the ferry terminal without contacting them and they'll let you on if there's space on the ferry👍 (Reservations are prioritized) The interior of the ship has been renovated and is beautiful✨ In addition to traditional seats where you can lie down, there are also counter seats with a view outside and reclining chairs. The seats with desks are spacious and perfect for families. The kids' corner is spacious, and there are also observation seats and private rooms available for a fee. The shop is small and sells bento boxes, but it closed shortly after we departed, so I recommend buying yours early 😊 Experience a comfortable boat trip on the National Highway Kyushu Ferry ✨ 💰Price per person: 1200 yen for passengers only 🚗Car (including passenger fee for 1 person) 5700 yen for less than 3m 7900 yen for less than 4m 9800 yen for less than 5m #National Highway Kyushu Ferry #Ehime #Oita #Kyushu to Shikoku Ferry #Transportation information #Domestic travel tips

Introducing the driving trips I actually took in Oita and Kumamoto! ! I especially recommend it in the fall when the leaves turn beautiful! Start from Oita Airport! Rent a car and go for a drive 🚗 ⇩ Enjoy the local Oita delicacy "Nakatsu Karaage" ⇩ Visit Usa Jingu, the main shrine of the Hachiman Shrines! The vermilion shrine was very beautiful. The grounds are large, so be careful about allocating your time. ⇩ Japan's No. 1 pedestrian-only facility! Enjoy the panoramic view from the "Kukju Bridge". ⇩ ※Yamaai no Yado Kiyasuya A member of the Japan Society for Preserving Secret Hot Springs. The Japanese modern rooms and rooms with open-air baths were very nice. It's a popular inn, so we recommend making reservations early. Head to a private hot spring that you can enjoy for a day trip. You can enjoy the white-blue hot springs at "Horei no Yu" in Waita Onsenkyo. The bath water is replaced every time. The fee varies depending on the size of the bath. I used the rock bath for 1,500 yen per hour. ⇩ Had lunch at "Teuchi Soba Tomoe," a soba restaurant with a great atmosphere at "Roadside Station Oguni Yu Station" ⇩ We went to "Nabegataki" waterfall, with its beautiful water curtain. It is a wonderful waterfall that has been used in commercials. It has changed to a reservation system because it is often crowded. During long holidays, reservations are required, so don't forget to make a reservation first when you have decided your plans! ⇩ We visited "Aso Shrine," which is also famous as a power spot. It was severely damaged in the Kumamoto earthquake in 2016, but restoration work was completed in December 2023. It is a wonderful place that you should definitely visit. ⇩ Returned the rental car to Aso Kumamoto Airport! #MyTravelItinerary #100TravelStyles #DriveTrip #OitaTrip #KumamotoTrip

☀️ A local delicacy in Hita is 'Hita Yakisoba,' which features crispy fried noodles complemented by the refreshing crunch of bean sprouts. The taste is quite delightful. There are also famous beverages crafted from the local groundwater, including beer, sake, and shochu. Many breweries in Hita offer tours, such as the 'Sapporo Beer Kyushu Hita Factory,' 'Lichiko Hita Shochu Distillery,' and a sake cellar museum located in Mamedamachi that dates back to the Edo period, where you can immerse yourself in the rich aroma of alcohol. ☀️ As evening approaches, restaurants begin to light up, and under the blue twilight sky, a hazy orange glow beckons, promising a table of heartwarming delicacies waiting for us.

1. Beppu select beppu I was walking along the street in front of the station where Beppu Onsen is located. I was thinking about looking at the local specialties and accidentally opened the door of the store. The sign at the door was wet by the rain, and the wet part took on a dark blue color, like a reflection of the sea and sky of Beppu. Handicrafts, agricultural products, food, art space. This souvenir shop, which rents an old house, embodies everything about the hot spring town of Beppu. The store has two floors in total. The second floor is the attic of a residential building. It is exquisite and spacious, and is a place where you can take a rest. Sitting in the house and listening to the sound of rain is very comfortable. Address: 9-34 Chuo-cho, Beppu City, Oita Prefecture 2. Oita Oita Made This specialty store for Oita products is located in the center of Oita City, in the corner of the Oita Bank ATM not far from the station. Walking into the house, the red brick architectural style seems to bring your thoughts back to the Meiji era. The spacious space features a variety of local specialties from all over Oita. If you consider souvenirs as a must-try part of your trip, this is definitely a must-do when visiting Oita Prefecture. Leave Oita and bring Oita back. Address: Akarenga-kan, 2-2-1, Funaichou, Oita City, Oita Prefecture 3. Taste of Oita This shop called Taste of Oita is not far from oitamade, in the basement of the nearby shopping mall. On weekday mornings, there are many customers in the store, carefully selecting special products from Oita. I was deeply impressed by the richness of the food content. Bring home the taste buds that will be left in Oita. Address: 3-2-24 Chuo-cho, Oita City, Oita Prefecture #Great places to visit in spring in Japan and Korea

It's a small lake, but it's full of charm, magic and beauty, and it changes with the seasons and the weather. There are big and small fish swimming comfortably. Close to each other, under the shade of a big tree, there is a small shrine. When you go along the lake to the back of the coffee shop, follow the wooden bridge to a small shrine, but not to be missed. #Shrine #Yufuin #Stunning view

[Japan Travel Attractions] Would love to share the next place in Japan - Oita Yema Creek The location is in the mountains so the distance is a bit far But after seeing such a spectacular scenery I felt it was worth it 👍🏻 Highly recommended for those who love nature The Blue Cave Gate is also one of the must-see attractions on the way It took 30 years of hands to pierce it by the master of Zen Sea with chisels and hammers (There will be a small historical data version inside the cave for visitors to view) It was really spectacular to feel at the scene and sigh with the efforts of the predecessors Another mention, when you go to pay attention to the flowering period because Yema Creek is one of the popular maple viewing spots in Japan #travel abroad #sights photography guide #travel inspiration #travel dry goods #I miss

[Bicycle ride in Hita, a travel destination only I know🚲] The moment I chose as the best moment of my trip to Fukuoka is the moment in this photo.💛 I remember every single moment of riding a bike in a real Japanese countryside where there were no Koreans or tourists. When I think about that time, I'm so happy that I almost cry. Hita is a great place to visit along with Yufuin while traveling in Fukuoka using the JR Pass. At first, I was going to just go to Yufuin, but my sister strongly recommended it, so I decided to stop by for a bit. But I liked Hita the best over Yufuin👏🏻 Hita is not yet a well-known tourist destination, even among Koreans, but people who know about it call it Little Kyoto. In fact, there aren't any tourist attractions. However, I think Hita is a place where you can truly appreciate the natural Japanese countryside without tourists!! Just looking at my photo, isn't it a background that looks like it came out of a Japanese anime with such pretty colors?😊 📍Rent a bicycle at "Hita City Tourist Information Center"🚲 - Rental location: Hita City Tourist Information Center - Rental fee: ¥200 per hour (¥100 for each additional hour) - Rental operating hours: 9:00 AM ~ 5:00 PM As soon as you exit Hita Station, there is a "Hita City Tourist Information Center" on the left. We didn't make a separate reservation and just went there to rent it on the same day. Hita is a small town, so I think 3-4 hours including meal time would be enough. I went when the rental was over and only rode for 1 hour, which was a little disappointing, but I felt like I just looked around. After the bike rental time, we had a meal and went back to Hakata.😀 There is no separate course. I'm usually meticulous, so I plan my trips very carefully, but I went to Hita without a plan, just finding out where to eat. Even when riding a bike, I just roughly looked at the road toward the *riverside* and rode without looking at the map without a destination. I was happy just riding a bike, and thanks to the great success of the restaurant I went to after returning the bike, it remains the best travel destination for me. I will introduce the highly praised restaurant on the next feed~🤤 #JapanTravel #Japan #FukuokaTravel #Fukuoka #YufuinTravel #Yufuin #HitaTravel #Hita #japan #fukuoka #yufuin #hita #wintertravel #traintravel #hotspringtravel #NextTimeHere #LifeShotSpot #LifeTravelDestination #RecreationTravel #WinterTravel
