Yufuin : A town where you can enjoy hot springs, beautiful architecture, and abundant nature.

Written By Misako Matsukura

Yufuin, located in Oita Prefecture, is known as a popular hot spring resort area with a long history, bustling with many tourists. It features Japanese gardens with a sense of "wabi-sabi" and numerous traditional Japanese-style buildings, all surrounded by rich natural scenery.

The natural beauty reflected on the surface of the lake is stunning, making spots like the picturesque Kinrin Lake, popular for strolling and photography, as well as the "Tourist Horse Carriage" that takes visitors around the town of Yufuin, quite beloved.

Yufuin's hot springs are known for being gentle, making them suitable even for babies and the elderly. There are many hot spring inns in Yufuin where you can stop by for a soak. Thus, one of the attractions is the ability to easily enjoy various baths, not just those in the accommodations where you stay.
