Kumamoto key attractions
Mount Aso (阿蘇山, Asosan)
One of the world's largest calderas, with a diameter of up to 25 kilometers and a circumference of over 100 kilometers, is located in the center of Kyushu. It is formed by Mount Aso, an active volcano that erupted in 2021 and 2016. Mount Aso has several active volcanic peaks, including Mount Nakadake, which has a crater that tourists can visit.
Nagabeta Seabed Road - Drive a Road That Emerges From the Depths of the Sea
Nagabeta Seabed Road is an undersea road that only opens at certain times of day. When low tide comes, the road is visible, but when high tide comes, only the utility poles and electric wires are visible above the surface. One of Kumamoto's most photographed spots, this mysterious undersea road was built in 1974 for fishermen who cultivate seaweed and shellfish in the Ariake Sea. According to legend, the utility poles that emerge from the water inspired the train line in Studio Ghibli's Spirited Away.
Kumamoto Castle
The castle was originally built in 1607 and gives many historical clues on how feudal lords lived during the Edo Period, including examples of architecture of those days. With about 800 cherry trees, the castle becomes a popular cherry blossoms spot usually in late March and early April.
Sakuranobaba Josaien Castle Town
