This walking tour takes you along part of the Kyushu Saigoku Pilgrimage, a route with a 1,280-year history. The five-kilometer route, with an elevation difference of 200 meters, takes about 3 hours to complete on foot. During the tour, you'll gain deeper insights into Buddhism and Japanese life. In terms of Buddhism, you can pray to the stone Buddhas and learn about the religion's characteristics as it traveled from China to Korea and eventually to Japan. You'll also gain insight into the origins of the route, and the significance of the 270 stone Buddhas. When it comes to life in Japan, you'll discover the blessings of the sea and mountains that surround the pilgrimage route. The sea on the opposite shore is not only a spectacular sight but also nurtures abundant resources and offers numerous opportunities to learn about the plants and monkeys that inhabit the surrounding mountains. You’ll experience a more authentic side of Japan that you won’t find in urban sightseeing.

About Beppu
Beppu is a hot-spring city on Kyushu's east coast, with steaming spring pools called hells, sand baths and mountains rising behind the bay.
Beppu, in Oita Prefecture on the island of Kyushu, sits between mountains and the sea, and plumes of steam rise from vents across the town. It has more hot-spring sources and a greater flow of hot water than any other place in Japan. The Hells of Beppu, a group of showpiece springs, include the blue Sea Hell, the blood-red Chinoike pond and bubbling mud pools, to be viewed rather than bathed in.
