— Attraction Introduction —

  • Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine

Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine enshrines Sugawara no Michizane, who is revered throughout Japan as the “God of Learning” and the “God of Calligraphy.” With a history of over 1,100 years, the shrine is highly respected across the country. It is a sacred place for praying for academic success, attracting many caring parents and high school students preparing for entrance exams. Up to 7 million visitors come each year to offer prayers and write their wishes for success on wooden plaques. To the front right of the main hall stands a plum tree that blooms earliest each spring. According to legend, it flew here from Kyoto, earning the name “Flying Plum Tree.” Opposite it is another plum tree said to have been gifted by the Empress, known as the “Empress Plum Tree.” More than 6,000 plum trees divide the shrine grounds into several areas, alongside many notable attractions such as the Momoyama-style main hall, which is also the burial site of Sugawara no Michizane, the sacred Flying Plum Tree, and the Treasure Hall that houses national cultural artifacts. Flowers bloom beautifully throughout all four seasons. Many traditional festivals are also held here every year, including the Usokae Festival and Onisube Festival in January, the Kyokusui no En spring ceremony, and the Jinkosai Grand Autumn Festival.

  • Yufuin

Yufuin, located in Ōita Prefecture, Kyushu, Japan, is a small mountain town originally called Yufuin. In 1955, Yufuin and Yunohira Village merged to form Yufuin, but the station and basin remain named "Yufuin." Yufuin Onsen is Kyushu's premier hot spring resort and a renowned summer retreat, ranking third in Japan in terms of spring volume.

  • Beppu Hell's Stove Hell

Beppu boasts numerous hot springs, many of which are known as hells. The most famous are the Eight Hells of Beppu: Sea Hell, Onishi-Bozu Hell, Mountain Hell, Stove Hell, Oniyama Hell, Shiraike Hell, Blood Pond Hell, and Tornado Hell. Stove Hell is one of these, and it's said that the custom of using the heat from the hells to prepare food offerings during the spring and autumn festivals at Kamado Hachiman Shrine, the Ujigami, originated long ago. The intense jets and gushing, high-temperature hot springs push the water temperatures of these hells to as high as 90°C.

  • Beppu Ropeway

Stunning panoramic views and vibrant colors of the four seasons! Kyushu's largest cable car, capable of carrying 101 people, takes you to the mountain world at 1,300 meters above sea level in just 10 minutes! From the mountaintop, you can fully immerse yourself in the magnificent scenery and the distinct seasonal changes of nature.
