Origine & histoire
Held each April 1–5 around 'Onsen Appreciation Day', the festival thanks the deities for Beppu's eight legendary hot-spring districts — the Beppu Hatto — which produce more thermal water than any other city in Japan.
Bon à savoir
Bring a small towel and try several of the free baths in one afternoon — it is the only time of year so many open their doors at no charge.
