Insider tip — In Hita, the historic merchant city of western Ōita whose preserved Mameda-machi district and summer kegani-crab festival make it one of Kyushu's most charming inland towns, Yushu Onsen's outdoor rotenburo lets bathers soak beneath open sky along the Mikuma River valley; the riverside setting, cedar forests, and proximity to both Kumamoto and Beppu make Hita an ideal onsen base for exploring Kyushu's interior.
