Warm Winter Getaway – Beppu and Oita
With winter vacation over and spring vacation not even on the radar, thoughts naturally turn to taking a weekend day trip to a warm and relaxing place with great food.

Then, in the nick of time, we were saved by a TVQ television program. The “O-Tasuketai” did us a favor and conducted on-site research for us in Oita, the place to chase those winter blues away. So here’s the special Oita edition of Kyushu Destination, with some honest-to-goodness TV personalities doing the heavy lifting for us!
