Matsuyama to Yamaguchi by train than to Beppu by Ferry

After Nagaski, I took 3 different to get to Matsuyama. It was very interesting because we went over about 3km of bridge between two islands. I spend the night there and it is very famous for the hot springs. I went to Dogo Onsen. It use to be the Royal Family Onsen. You can walk from the bus stop across the road and in the middle of the square there was a natural hot spring for your feet and a clock that plays music and has Japanese theme to it.

I took the train from Maguska to Yamaguchi and then took the ferry across to Beppu

I arrived in Beppu after about two and an half hour ferry ride.
