... Read moreExploring Kyushu's diverse cities offers so many memorable experiences beyond just sightseeing. For instance, in Kumamoto, don't miss the majestic Kumamoto Castle and Sakura-no-Baba Josaien, where you can relish local flavors and traditional crafts. Nagasaki’s unique blend of history and culture shines at Glover Garden and the Chinatown area, great for experiencing local cuisine and heritage. If you're interested in natural wonders, Sakurajima's volcanic trails and observation decks provide breathtaking views and an adventurous hike. Visiting Yufuin and Beppu lets you unwind in celebrated hot springs surrounded by gorgeous landscapes. For cultural immersion, Saga's historical parks and the Yūtoku Inari Shrine offer tranquil settings steeped in tradition. I also recommend visiting the Oishi Tea Factory near Kurume to taste and learn about Japan’s exquisite tea culture. When planning your Kyushu journey, consider purchasing attraction tickets in advance, such as for the Gunkanjima Digital Museum, to ensure smooth entry. Combining these highlights will make your trip well-rounded and memorable. Remember to pack comfortable shoes for the walking tours and bring a camera—the photo opportunities are incredible! Kyushu truly mixes vibrant city life, rich history, natural beauty, and unique local experiences that captivate every traveler. Exploring off the beaten path here might just be one of the best travel decisions you'll make.

This trip took place in the first week of December. It was pretty cold in Aso at this time - would highly recommend bringing warmer clothes! (Side note: Day 10 was pretty empty because we were feeling under the weather. Maybe we’ll try to visit Kumamoto again in future!)
