The number of sources and the general amount of discharge are overwhelming No.1. Wonderfulness of "Beppu", big analysis

The number of the source in Beppu, more than 2800 and the amount of discharge, 102,000 a minute, ℓsuper- (※). It takes pride in its best of Japan numerical value both. By the way, when Oita prefecture Yufuin hot spring in the 2nd place of whole country is seen, I ℓfind out the number of sources is about 1000, and the amount of discharge is about 52,000, and that Beppu is big and excellent. A more wonderful one is the point that simple hot spring, Chloride spring and a sulfur spring can also enjoy 10 kinds of some inside of "the hot-spring quality for notices" and 7 kinds in the Beppuhot spring village. There aren't other hot spring places where the quality and the amount are this much enriched, and "in Beppuhot spring, Japanese best" and praised one can also nod.
※ "The degree of 2021, hot spring status report (summary)" it depends on (Oita prefecture website hot spring data).

By the way why is there hot-spring quality of 7 kinds in a Beppuhot spring village? I'll read the geological feature-like feature first to know the secret.
There are a lot of active faults and Beppu ranges, the alluvial fan which is located in "Beppu-Mt. eternity, fault zone" and spreads over an eastern Beppu bay from Tsurumidake and a temple (temple) mountain of Nishibe of a city. It's formed out of ancient pyroclastic flow by a volcanic activity in Tsurumidake and rock by Debris flows. Existence of 2 faults to which the one I'd like to watch runs through the north of alluvial fan and the south using Tsurumidake district as a base point. This fault is the underground way way of heat water, and an excavation spring of some "hell" (discharge and boiling well) and recent years is also seen much around 2 gaps from the past. Kannawa in the north (can rope) is also located in "Beppu eight hot water" along a fault with aside of the beach, Beppu, Kankaiji and Hotta along Kamegawa Shibaseki Kannawa audience with emperor in Myoban (alum) and the south river fault along a fault.

Minamoto of the heat water which runs calls a fault heat water of the Chloride spring type in the underground in Tsurumi volcano group. I can think the rainwater it permeated from the surface of the earth fays with heat water, and I boil by underground thermal, and steam is to condense and react on an alluvial fan with accumulated various rocks, and the various hot-spring quality has formed.
The state of the gush is also various and "discharge" and the heat water hot water vapor spouts in turn to the sea from a mountain are the temperature lower than "boiling spring" and the boiling point spouted with steam while boiling, and extracted "general hot spring" ranges. The this various gush forms "are flooded with hot water", just, abundant hot spring culture is brought to Beppu.
