A trip around the mystical Kumamoto and TakachihoDeepen the charm of Kumamoto and Takachiho and start a journey full of mysticism and natural wonders. First, head to Kamishi-Kimi Kumano-za, famous for its pilgrimage route decorated with nearly 100 lanterns, as if you were lost in a dream world. Along the way, you will find Kuroto-iwa, a giant wind tunnel protruding from Onihachi, a symbol of faith that overcomes difficulties. The shrine's sacred tree, Nagi, is also an ideal place to make a wish, as it symbolizes matchmaking and business prosperity. Next, head to Amanoiwato Shrine and experience the mystical charm of Japanese mythology. Amanoiwato Shrine is an ancient sacred place that enshrines Amaterasu Omikami. The Tenyasu River within the shrine grounds was originally a popular place to make wishes by stacking stones, signifying that wishes would be fulfilled and good fortune would come. In addition to the sacred pilgrimage of worshippers, you can also experience a traditional blessing ceremony. Afterwards, explore Takachiho Gorge, a beautiful valley formed by an ancient volcanic eruption. The cliffs towering on both sides of the valley and the Manai Falls give a sense of the majestic nature. On the approximately 1 km promenade, you can leisurely stroll through unique scenery such as the "Kihachi Power Stone" and three arch bridges from different eras (Shinbashi Bridge, Showa Bridge, and Shinto Takachiho Bridge). In particular, the 70 m high Sennin no Byobu Rock has a beauty like a natural folding screen. Each attraction has its own history and natural scenery, allowing you to feel the depth of Japanese culture and the splendor of natural scenery.

初めての気球でとても貴重な体験となりました。 体験内容にビル13階相当まで上がると書いてあり、「あんまりかな?」と思っていましたが、いざ乗ってみるととても高くて周辺の山々の風景を楽しめました。 1つ難点としては、体験が6時〜で細かい時間は前日の体験が決行出来るかどうかの連絡の際に伝えられてたため、旅行者の場合はその後に予定などを詰めすぎない方が良いです。 しかし、スタッフの方々の対応も愛想良く、テキパキしていて良かったです。 ありがとうございました!
