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

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

#springitinerary If you’re swinging through Yufuin in spring, Floral Village is a total gem you don’t wanna miss. This charming little spot feels like a mini European fairytale, with colorful shops, cobblestone streets, and flowers blooming everywhere, making it the perfect place for a relaxed spring stroll. The fresh spring air and gentle sunshine make wandering around super pleasant, whether you’re popping into quirky shops or grabbing a sweet crepe or ice cream. The vibe is really laid-back and cozy, and it’s way less crowded than bigger tourist spots, so you can soak up all the chill, flowery goodness without rushing. Plus, with so many blooms around, it’s a great spot to snap some cute pics for your feed. If you want a fun, light, and flowery spring day that’s a little different from the usual Japan must-sees, Yufuin Floral Village has you covered!

#springitinerary Visiting Beppu Hells in spring? Total win. The weather’s just right, so you can actually enjoy walking around without melting. The colorful, steaming pools look even cooler with fresh spring greenery popping up everywhere. It’s like the hot springs and nature are teaming up for a seriously cool vibe. Plus, the crowds aren’t crazy, so you get to soak in the weird, steamy landscapes without feeling rushed or squished. Spring flowers around the area add a nice pop of color, making everything feel fresh and alive. It’s chill but still super interesting, a perfect spot to mix some nature, cool views, and that unique Beppu hot spring magic. If you’re planning a spring trip, definitely throw Beppu Hells on your list for some steamy, colorful, and low-key awesome adventures.

#springitinerary If you’re up for a stroll with a side of slight thrill, the Kokonoe Yume Grand Suspension Bridge is a pretty cool spot to check out. Walking across that huge swaying bridge is kinda wild, the views down into the forest below are seriously epic. You get all those green trees stretching out forever and a fresh breeze that makes you feel alive. After crossing, take some time to wander around the forest beneath the bridge. The trails down there are peaceful and perfect for just chilling with nature, hearing birds, and maybe spotting a few little critters. It’s not a long hike or anything crazy, just a nice combo of wow moments from the bridge and easy-going forest vibes below. Great for a quick adventure that’s fun but not exhausting. Definitely a must-do if you’re nearby!

I already knew that this was a very popular tourist attraction. But I really didn’t expect there to be so many people. The original plan was to go here on Friday. Then go to Oita and Beppu on the east side of Kyushu. As a result, when I went to the station to reserve a seat with the JR Kitakyushu Pass, I was dumbfounded. I knew it was difficult to reserve a seat for the express train. Choose to go on weekdays, and go to Kumamoto and Amakusa on Saturdays. There were no seats at all. On the contrary, there were still two seats available on the first express train Yufu on Saturday morning. As expected, Yufuin is a must-see attraction in Kitakyushu. Then I'll change it to Saturday. Indeed, I encountered this train during my trip to Kitakyushu. This was the busiest time, with many passengers standing in the aisles. After taking the Yufu train for about 2.5 hours, we arrived at Yufuin from Tosu. As soon as you get off the train and walk out of Yufuin Station, At first glance, I saw Mount Yufu, which was located far away from the main road. It stands in the middle of the road, and the weather is very good in the morning. The visibility was very high, and you could even see the last bit of snow. At this time, most passengers took the first express train to Yufuin with me. Therefore, the town seems quiet. Since it is the cherry blossom season, So I chose to go around Yufuin Delta on the east side of town. Follow the river to Kinrin Lake and Tenso Shrine. However, due to the high altitude here, The cherry blossoms have only been in bloom for a few days, and are not as abundant and lush as those on the plains. But it left me with a lot of good impressions. Arriving at Kinrin Lake and Tenso Shrine, strangely enough, In fact, the most beautiful scenery of this lake is It is most beautiful when there is a little fog on the lakeside. But if you want to see this scene, There is a high probability that you will not be able to see Mount Yufu, which is indeed quite contradictory. After visiting the lake and the shrine, I saw a restaurant that was already marked. At 11:00, I think there should be fewer diners. So let's go eat first. As expected, I was the first one, so I chose the first row seat by the lake. I originally expected the restaurant to be average in terms of food, and the beautiful scenery was more important. But surprisingly, it was delicious. The Higon Hamburger Steak Set is not expensive. But the portion was big and delicious, luckily I didn't eat too much or it would have been really filling. The name of the restaurant is: レストラン ランプシャ (Yanglantern) In the afternoon, we returned to the station along the main old street of Yufuin. By the way, visit the famous Yunotsubo Street and Yufuin Flower Village. Wow, I was really surprised by how crowded it was. So many travelers came to this wild mountain. Passenger transport, tour buses and railways bring in large crowds, and restaurants are packed. I bought delicious matcha ice cream in the old street. Matcha ジェラート専店 telato(テラート) Who would buy the regular one for the same price? Of course I want it to be five times more concentrated. It tastes really good. Finally, we returned to the station and took the afternoon train to Oita, the largest city in eastern Kyushu. My impression of Oita during this trip is that it is a city. In the future, it can be used as a place to stay when traveling in Kitakyushu. Convenient transportation and numerous shops, that's probably the comment. But Beppu, a city located north of Oita, is different. As a hot spring town, there are many scenic spots. The pedestrian street, hot spring baths, and the view of white steam floating into the sky. There are many tourists, During this trip, we also visited Beppu Park and the Sakura trees in the Sakai River. Although it is very beautiful, the overall feeling of this time I think Kyushu's cherry blossoms are great in terms of overall scale and landscape. There is still a gap with the Hokuriku region. Finally, we went to Takegawara Onsen, Ginza-dori in front of the station, and the Beppu Station Market. I saw a lot of cute stray cats while shopping. Later I found out that Beppu City is very tolerant of cats. After returning to the station, we tasted the local food of Bungo Tea House. Local specialties include chicken tempura and tempura donburi. Finally, we returned to Tosu and found that we had enough time. So head to Higashibeppu, located between Beppu and Oita. This wooden station is located on the Tanoura Beach. The station is surrounded by cherry blossom trees, so it is very beautiful to take pictures of the trains passing by. #Yufuin #Oita #Beppu Tourism #Higashibeppu Station

#Register for April Hotel Test Sleeper 2025 #Fukuoka Itinerary #Kinrin Lake #Oil Cloth Courtyard When you come to Yufuin in Oita Prefecture, Kyushu, Kinrin Lake is definitely one of the attractions you cannot miss. Jinlin Lake is often covered with mist in the early morning, and the lake reflects the surrounding mountains and tree shadows, making it look like a fairyland. The lake is said to have been named after the famous Meiji-era Confucian scholar Mori Soso, who was walking here and saw the lake shimmering like fish scales under the setting sun, so he named it "Kinrin Lake". It is recommended to arrange the trip in the morning or evening from December to April, when the lake is most dreamy. Take a walk along the lakeside trail, where the air is fresh, the surroundings are quiet, and you can even see wild ducks swimming around. There are several specialty cafes and shops by the lake, where you can sit down and have a cup of coffee, admire the lake view, and enjoy a leisurely time. There is also a small shrine and hot spring outlet by the lake. It is said that half of the lake water comes from hot springs and half from clear springs. Therefore, the lake never freezes all year round, and charming mist often rises from the lake in winter. If you want to dine by the lake, we recommend you try Cafe La Ruche on the lakeside. This popular cafe has large glass windows, allowing you to enjoy handmade desserts and coffee while admiring the beautiful scenery of Kinrin Lake. The French toast and homemade cakes are particularly popular here, and the atmosphere is warm and cozy. Another restaurant worth trying is "Sansho Fish Cuisine しらたき", which specializes in local Sansho fish dishes and Japanese set meals, allowing you to taste the local flavor of Yufuin. If you have enough time, you may want to visit the nearby Yufuin Onsen Street and taste local desserts and handmade items. Kinlin Lake is not only a great place to take photos, but also a great choice to relax and get close to nature. Whether you are a couple, a family or traveling alone, you can find your own tranquility and touch here.

#Spring0yentrip When I visited Harajiri Falls, I was overwhelmed by its scale. The waterfall flows straight down and is wide, making it truly worthy of being called the "Niagara of the Orient." The attraction is that you can view the waterfall not only from the front or from above, but also from the side and back, so you can enjoy its beauty from various angles. When you get close to the base of the waterfall, the splashes and roaring sound resonate throughout your body, and you can feel the energy of nature. At the same time, the surrounding countryside has a very peaceful atmosphere. There is also a suspension bridge near the waterfall, and the view of the waterfall from there is a magnificent sight. Harajiri Falls changes its appearance depending on the season, but the day I visited was sunny and I was able to see a rainbow over the waterfall. It was a very memorable experience that allowed me to feel the beauty and power of nature. #HarajiriFalls #NiagaraOfTheOrient #OitaTourism #BreathtakingSights #PowerOfNature

| Oita, Japan. 🌋A Date with the Aso Volcano | Oita, Japan 🌄Dawn: A Dreamy First Impression of the Volcano in the Clouds I set off early to catch the stunning sunrise over the Aso Volcano. As the first light of dawn gently illuminated the earth, the Aso Volcano appeared like a giant awakening from slumber, shrouded in mist🌅. Standing on the observation deck, the view before me was like a dreamlike painting, with the sky painted in shades of orange and red, contrasting with the wisps of smoke rising from the crater. It was breathtaking. As the sun rose higher, its golden rays gradually lit up the entire volcanic range, the mountains appearing to be edged in gold, every detail shining with the artistry of nature. At that moment, it felt as if time had stopped for this magnificent scene. 🌋Volcano Exploration: Feel the Earth's Heartbeat Up Close Following the winding path to the crater, the ground beneath my feet seemed to tell ancient stories. The massive crater of the Aso Volcano resembled a giant mouth of the earth, exuding a mysterious and majestic aura. Up close, wisps of hot air occasionally rose from the crater, like the fiery breath of the earth💨. The surrounding rocks displayed unique textures and colors, witnesses to the history of volcanic eruptions, each bearing the marks of time. Here, you can truly feel the power of nature, a feeling beyond words, as if you are in sync with the heartbeat of the earth. 🐎Grassland Stroll: Leisurely Time at the Foot of the Volcano Surprisingly, at the foot of the Aso Volcano lies a vast expanse of grassland. The lush green grassland stretches like a giant carpet to the horizon, with herds of cattle and horses grazing leisurely, creating a picturesque pastoral scene🐄. Strolling on the grassland, the gentle breeze carries the scent of grass and a hint of earthy fragrance, a delightful experience. You can also choose to ride a vintage carriage, slowly traversing the grassland, savoring the tranquility and leisure, as if transported back to the romantic Middle Ages. 🍲Local Delicacies: A Volcanic Feast for the Taste Buds After a day of fun, it's time to savor the local delicacies! Around the Aso Volcano, various delicious treats await your exploration. The top recommendation is Aso beef, a gourmet delight nurtured by the volcano. The tender and juicy beef, grilled to a golden brown on both sides, sizzles enticingly, making your mouth water just by looking at it. In your mouth, the delicate texture and rich meat aroma burst on your taste buds, a heavenly experience🥩. There's also the local vegetables from Aso, which are particularly sweet due to the fertile volcanic soil. Whether served cold or stewed, they offer the purest taste of nature.
