Went to Hell (Jiguko)

Assalammualikum~ ^^


Today, Ms.Nakamura (hontou ne arigatou Nakamura san!) from the Admission Office took me, Fion and Naif to what Beppu is very well known for, the onsen (hot-spring). Beppu has a lot of hot springs and by that I mean, A LOT. Steams of hot water can be mainly found around the city.

She took us to hell!! *nods seriously* This particular onsen is called hell a.k.a Jiguko. The place itself looks like a little piece of heaven. Allah hu akhbar! Allah has created one beautiful world for sure :D There are many types of Jiguko. So far I only know the Umi Jiguko (Sea Hell) and the Chinoike Jiguko (Blood Pool Hell). However we only went to see Umi Jiguko. Jigukos are not for bathing because the temperature can reach up to 100 degree Celsius! ..And what fascinated me the most is that this Umi Jiguko, pool of sea-blue hot water, is used to boil eggs and people can consume these eggs at the gift shops. I was told that these eggs taste different from our typical eggs. I will try one someday! ^^

Here are the pictures from today :D

(eggs are being boiled in that hard basket ^^)


(Huge water lilies!! One lily can carry child under the age of 10. Sugoi ne~
Well here, you can see that coins were thrown inside the lilies. haisssh, membazir! hahah nada wa~ :p)



This is not the Blood Pool Hell that I've mentioned earlier and I apologize for not recalling the name of this Jiguko. FYI, the BPH is at a different onsen ^^)

(Notice something? :p Tersenyum sendiri lah ku jua membaca. Kalau ada Eqah, confirm abis lah ne kami "buli" sign ani..Hy Qah~ hahaha (People soaking their feet. The water is so so so hot but amazingly, kids seem to enjoy it. The 'Hot Spring for a Leg' is very good for blood circulation and healing sore feet)

Hai, minnasan~ That is all for today! Owh owh, tomorrow we'll be having health check up..Again! Will be the second medical check for me this year. Can you believe it? Damn you blood test! huhuhu For my beloved siblings and colleagues, selamat kembali ke Sekolah / Uni. Have fun! :p

Okay, will write here again soon. Jaa~


From Japan with love,
Dee
