Hyotan Onsen in Beppu City, Oita Prefecture, has gained immense popularity among young people for its 'Self Sand Bath Experience'. Unlike traditional sand baths where staff bury guests, this facility allows friends and couples to bury each other. This interactive approach encourages communication and creates a fun atmosphere perfect for photos and videos, driving record-high visitor numbers for the 100-year-old hot spring facility.
