In this one not only there is the blue umi jigoku, there is also a smaller red, chi jigoku. Just come to this one, don't be a sucker and buy that 2,000 yen pass for all 7. The hells are not impressive at all, just take a look at the pictures on trip advisor and you will know what I'm talking about.

Start with Umi Jigoku and follow the path to see them in the most efficient order. Lots of steam in the winter!

This is the more scenic of the “hells” being cobalt blue, and has a nice garden around it. We certainly didn’t feel the need to visit all of the 8 “hells” and only visited this one and the one adjacent. The gardens are nice and we enjoyed the milk puddings sold in the shop which are apparently steamed on the onsen steam… Also look to buy the bath salts in the shop that you can bring home which are cobalt blue like the hell.. (they are only available in this shop)

Nice blue water that is created from natural minerals. It's nice to do at least once if you are in Beppu.

It was fun to see the hells. The Japanese garden was also very pretty. They have a footbath, and you can borrow a towel for free. They have chili and pepper soft cream. They were both good, but I recommend the pepper one.

It's definitely the best of the Seven Hells. Very beautiful and surreal place. Definitely recommended for photographers and onsen enthusiasts!

The largest of 8 hells in Beppu. There is the large "Blue Hell" with bright blue, boiling hot water, hot enough to poach an egg. There is a smaller "Red Hell" and garden with a small pond and path lined with Torii gates. Worth a visit, go to the upper for a great view when the geyser erupts and a bit of history/geology of the area.

We decided to go to this out of all other 8 hells of Beppu and it was worth the visit! There were 2 hot springs (the red and the blue one) and a pond with a hike track up to the hill.

One of the half dozen notable jigoku (literally means hell) or hot springs in Beppu. We bought the ¥400 single entry. In retrospect the charge seems rather high to see just a medium-size turquoise coloured hot spring, a relatively featureless lake and a small garden. The tropical plants in the heated greenhouse are quite ordinary. The small foot hot bath was probably the highlight. The largest feature was actually the highly commercialised gift shop. So glad we didn’t buy the ¥2000 two day pass to see the rest of the jigokus.
