    Oita Pref. Oitashi Kanzaki
    A 628-meter-high mountain facing Beppu Bay is located on the border between Oita City and Beppu City. Known as a habitat for monkeys since ancient times, and feeding the monkeys was found to prevent them from damaging the crops of nearby farms. In 1953 the Takasakiyama Natural Zoological Garden was opened on the mountain, and today some 1,200 monkeys live on the mountain, and it is a popular destination to see monkeys living in an almost completely natural state.

Oita Areas

A trip to Oita is tantamount to a long soak in the Beppu baths. The mountainous, coastal prefecture of Oita is renowned for having more onsen than any other prefecture in Japan, most of which lie in the city of Beppu on the west coast of Kyushu, recognizable by its pungent sulphuric aroma and the clouds of steam that puff up across the hillside. Away from the Beppu hot springs await mountains, waterfalls, and temples, so don’t hesitate to explore Oita a little further.
