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

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

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

#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.

There is a large parking lot at the top of the hill by car. Once you pass through the gate, you will find a large site on high ground where the sun shines down and you can feel energized. The shrine is long and narrow, and in December you can see the sight of the shimenawa decorations being replaced with new ones. The decorations change depending on the season, with large kadomatsu pine decorations, hamaya arrows, votive plaques for success in exams (pentagonal), and votive plaques for the following year, making it another new photo spot. The shrine is backlit if you point it at the afternoon, so mornings are popular, but it is recommended to visit and take photos around noon, when it is less crowded. You can take mystical photos by slightly correcting the backlight with a flash. #0yentravel

Before departure, I made a free reservation at the ticket machine at the station, which greatly improved my riding experience. The whole process was surprisingly smooth, without any cumbersome procedures or long waits, which made me look forward to this trip. After getting on the bus, I found that there were not many people on the bus. Compared with Aso Boys and the like, this was definitely a treasure route, which allowed me to easily reserve a seat in the first row, which was almost equivalent to the driver's seat. This location allowed me to experience the train's trajectory up close, as if I were part of the train, traveling together through the mountains of Kyushu. The train runs east-west on a single-track track, sometimes passing through lush forests and sometimes crossing deep canyons. Each sharp turn brought a different visual experience, making me feel like I was on a roller coaster powered by an internal combustion engine. The feeling of excitement and thrill made my heart beat faster and I was very excited. What surprised me even more was that as the train passed through the mountains, the scenery outside the window was simply breathtaking. Rolling hills, lush green forests, crystal clear streams... every scene is like a beautiful painting, slowly unfolding before my eyes. Sometimes I marvel at the wonders of nature, and sometimes I am intoxicated by the tranquility and beauty of this land. In addition to the visual enjoyment, this trip also gave me a deeper understanding of Kyushu's geography and culture. The areas that the train passes through not only have unique natural scenery, but also carry rich historical and cultural heritage. Along the way, I saw many ancient villages, temples and castles, which witnessed the vicissitudes of this land and demonstrated the wisdom and courage of the people of Kyushu. It not only allowed me to experience a unique railway journey, but also allowed me to appreciate the beautiful scenery and profound culture of Kyushu.
