Chinoike Jigoku, Beppu

Next on the day's agenda was Beppu, the city that seems to be blowing up  steam out of the ground everywhere.

We chose to go to one of the tourist attractions, Chinoike Jigoku (Pond of blood hell). Here the clay is naturally melted by the steam and makes a pond of "blood".
There are lots of other tourists spots - blue sea hell, tornado hell, bubble hell)
Unfortunately, tourism has almost taken over and they are selling blood burgers, blood ice-cream, blood lollies etc. Oh well, it is the 21st century.
