Because Kyushu is one of the hot spots of geothermal phenomena , Beppu is no exception. The city has more than 2,900 geothermal holes spread throughout the city, spraying 13,000 tons of hot water every day.

Hot steam makes the city year-round fuzzy like a fire. And this is why people call Beppu "the city of fire".

But not only that, Beppu is also given the name . hell! Partly because you come here at night, you will experience misty roads like the way back . negative realms. But most probably because the hot spring temperature here is up to nearly 100 degrees Celsius.

Because of that, the hot springs here are also called "hell".

But in return, hot water wells play a very important role for city residents. Many people boil water from high temperature steam rising from the mouth of a boiling water well, some hot springs are pumped into pipes, providing hot water for families, businesses, restaurants .

And here, let's see what is the "hell" of this city?

The first is the Chinoike Jigoku hot spring - also known as the "hell blood lake" because of its bloody and strange colors. This is a hot water pond area filled with sandstone, magnesium oxide, iron oxide - the metals are red.

Next is Umi Jigoku - "hell sea" of Beppu. The water here is as green and poetic as the beaches in Maldives.

There are things, the water temperature falls into the range . 98 degrees C, enough to boil you if you intend to dig down.

If you have the opportunity to come to Nha Trang, you will not be strange about mud bath service. There is also a service in Beppu, in the Oniishibozu Jigoku area.

This place has the nickname of hell . the head of the monk , because the muddy sludge occasionally floats in the middle of the lake.

And this is Shiraike Jigoku - the spring has the name "milky hell". The colors of water and smoke here are milky white, due to the reaction between boric acid, salt, sodium silicate and calcium bicarbonate.
