Що подивитися в Беппу
Beppu's Geothermal Wonders & Essential Sights
Beppu is a geothermal hub centered around its eight distinct hot spring districts. The city features the 'Hells of Beppu,' a series of spectacular thermal ponds including the cobalt-blue Umi Jigoku and the iron-rich Chinoike Jigoku. Beyond the steam, the landscape is defined by historic wooden bathhouses like Takegawara Onsen and architectural landmarks such as the Naito-designed Beppu Tower. Elevated observatories across the city provide specific vantage points for viewing the rising steam plumes that characterize the skyline.
