When visiting Beppu Onsen, Umi Jigoku is a must-see. The moment I stepped into the grounds, I was drawn to the huge, vivid blue hot spring. The color was so beautiful it almost looked unreal!
Even though it’s called “Sea Hell,” the scenery doesn’t feel like hell at all. It’s more like stepping into a dreamy wonderland. The steaming hot spring pond surrounded by greenery makes every photo look amazing. You can also try the specialty hot spring eggs, and there’s a free footbath too. The Beppu Hell Tour is absolutely worth experiencing.

SNOOPY Chaya Yufuin
Located in some of Japan’s most popular tourist destinations, SNOOPY Chaya offers a unique chance to step into the world of the globally beloved beagle Snoopy and his PEANUTS friends while also experiencing the charm of the local area.
While strolling around Yufuin, I saw SNOOPY Chaya and just had to stop.
The whole place is filled with Snoopy details. From the decor to the desserts, everything is almost unfairly cute. It’s a total paradise for photos!
I ordered a few Snoopy-shaped desserts and pudding. They weren’t just adorable to look at—the flavors were great too. Sweet but not too heavy.
Eating cute desserts while looking out at the streets of Yufuin made for such a simple little travel joy.
If you love Snoopy or anything super cute, you definitely need to add this stop to your Yufuin itinerary! -

Yufuin Onsen
Yufuin Onsen is a hot spring resort at the foot of Mt. Yufu at the heart of Oita Prefecture. There is no big hotel and many inns are tranquil Japanese style, which are popular among women visitors.
Yufuin Onsen is a spot you really shouldn’t miss when visiting Kyushu.
Strolling through the streets, you’ll find unique little shops, the sweet scent of desserts, and a relaxed atmosphere on both sides. You can also enjoy beautiful views of Mt. Yufu in the distance.
Take your time walking and browsing, and soak in the quiet warmth of the town. This kind of easygoing travel pace makes it so hard to leave. -

Yufuin Floral Village
A compact theme park that recreates the streetscapes of the Cotswolds region in the UK, known as a filming location for the movie “Harry Potter,” with a magical, fairytale-like atmosphere that feels like you’ve stepped into a storybook. Inside the park, beautiful plants bloom throughout the seasons, and paths lined with stone cottages continue on, with plenty of photo spots scattered throughout.
Visiting Yufuin Floral Village in Kyushu felt like stepping right into a little town from a fairy tale! The cute European-style buildings, colorful flowers, plants, and unique little shops make every corner full of surprises. Anywhere you stand is a great photo spot.
It’s perfect for taking a slow stroll, snapping pictures, and soaking up that relaxed travel vibe. It totally brought out my inner girly side! No wonder it’s such a popular must-visit spot in Yufuin. Even my camera didn’t want to take a break. -
