Noboribetsu

Noboribetsu is a city on the Japanese island of Hokkaido. It's known for its natural hot springs. In volcanic crater Jigokudani (Hell Valley), steam rises from the mountains and hot water bubbles up from the Tessen Ike geyser. Stone demon statues decorate the city center. Trails weave between the oaks in the Noboribetsu Primeval Forest. East of the city, Shiho Peak has panoramic views over the waters of Lake Kuttara.
