If you need to take a breather from the rigors of sightseeing, get some fresh air and sunshine at Shidaka Lake. Bring a few snacks or a good book ... Whatever helps you relax!
Shidaka Lake is a great place to begin your discovery of Beppu. This body of water comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only spot to see here. Save time for other attractions like Hells of Beppu, Takegawara Onsen, and Kijima Kogen Park to get a complete picture of what the area has to offer.
