I recommend everyone to go there! If you go to Beppu, you must go to Sanrio Land! It is also very convenient to go there! We took the train from Beppu Station to Yanggu and then took a taxi there. There are not many people in the park! It is very friendly to children! There is no need to queue for the project! My daughter had a super happy time! I really recommend it! It looks good for taking pictures! It's pink!
Harmonyland is a small, charming theme park in a small district of Hayami in japan. you can plan a day trip so for a half day you can tour at theame park and can enjoy the other part of day at surrounding area which is breathtaking countryside. The theame park is not too big so If you arrive early then you can enjoy all the rides in couple of hour. Small park but a place to refresh. yourself.

The Suginoi Hotel is also known as the "Suginoi Palace" and is composed of several buildings. Among them, the main building is accessible through the inner corridor on the fifth floor, and you can see the famous special tent bath and infinity swimming pool, which are the biggest selling points. Last night, from check-in at three o'clock in the afternoon to midnight, bathers ranging from elderly people in wheelchairs to swaddled babies flocked to the super-large soup pool like crucian carp crossing the river... It was so shocking! I also saw the pictures on the official website and fell in love at first sight, so I came all the way here ~ But there were too many people on the night I checked in, so I didn’t try to squeeze in. When the door opened at 7 o’clock this morning, the sunrise was forecast at 7:10, but it rained, so I didn’t meet the one in the picture. Outstanding beauty.
However, the tent bath in the light rain is really good - you can not only enjoy the comfort of the hot spring ♨️, but also feel better because of the fresh and cold air in the open-air bath... Even if there is no sunrise, even if you can't see the blue sky and blue sea, there is no obstruction With a wide field of vision, it is enough for three or five people to enjoy the wonderful scenery surrounded by clouds, mist and geothermal heat!
(Because photography is not allowed in the hot spring pool, I can only describe it in words. Haha, please use your imagination~)
The outdoor heated pool facility with projection mapping was truly amazing!
During the day, it was pleasant to look out over Oita's mountains and the sea, and at set times in the evening, there was a light, sound, and water show to enjoy.
Projection mapping was also available in facilities other than the pool, and we also enjoyed the indoor bath facilities.
The buffet was also extensive, so you could spend time just inside the facility.
There were a lot of family guests, so it did feel a little crowded at times, but we were satisfied.
