Oita's Essential Wonders

Oita Prefecture is defined by its geothermal activity and historical landmarks. Beppu features the 'Hells,' including the cobalt blue Umi Jigoku and the red-tinted Chinoike Jigoku. Natural landscapes extend to the Kuju Mountain Range, home to the volcanic Mt. Kuju. In Oita city, the 16th-century Funai Castle ruins provide a glimpse into the region's feudal history, while the nearby city hall serves as the administrative hub. These locations highlight the mix of volcanic geology and traditional Japanese architecture found across the region.
