uses and meanings
If you already have some particle に (ni) indicates the direction (although it still has many other uses) or for what an action is done, and so on...
The particle べ (be), on the other hand, is a type of particle known as a "sentence-ending particle" - similar to the particles な, ね, わ, ぜ, ぞ, よ (na, ne, wa, ze, zo, yo) - and comes from specific dialects, being most commonly seen in Tohoku (northern region of Japan) and in Kanto.
It basically has three functions: to indicate speculation (uncertainty), to indicate a desire, and/or to suggest an invitation.
In many sentences it is possible to observe the presence of particles さ, よ and か (sa, yo and ka) after the particle べ (be), composing the pairs べさ (besa), べか (beka) or べえか (beeka ) and べよ (beyo).
