BY Grant Constable  ·  Thursday Dec 6, 2018

The third stop of the Rugbypass.com Rugby World Cup guide is the prefecture of Oita on the southern island of Kyushu. After visiting both Kumamoto and Fukuoka, Jaybor Staunton experiences a sand bath in the town of Beppu and pays a visit to the famous City Spa Onsen with stunning views over the city.

He heads for a feed in a traditional izakaya, which is a local Japanese pub that serves cheap food and great beer, before heading onto the 42,000 seater Oita stadium.

Oita will play host to two quarter-finals as well as three group stage matches involving New Zealand, Australia, Wales and Fiji.
