Located in the southwestern part of Japan, Kyushu has some areas with a tropical climate and many islands with beautiful seas and scenic beauty, including Amami Oshima.
There are many famous sightseeing spots with dynamic nature, including Yakushima, Mt. Aso, and Takachiho, as well as many other places where you can enjoy various activities.
And within Kyushu alone, there are areas that range from tropical climates to areas where it snows, offering many variations from beautiful beaches to viewing mountain village omagura (Shinto music and dance) in the snow.
There is also a wide variety of World Heritage sites and attractions related to history, culture, and traditions, and each prefecture is full of its own unique and fascinating sights.
Blessed with abundant nature, Kyushu is also a treasure trove of culinary delights, from fresh seafood, brand-name beef, and seasonal ingredients to local delicacies, as well as nationally famous sake and imo-shochu.
Just as many golfers visit Kyushu, it takes only one and a half hours to fly from Korea to Fukuoka and about three hours by high-speed ferry.
In addition, there are airports in all prefectures in Kyushu, and it takes only two hours from Fukuoka to Kagoshima by Shinkansen bullet train.
We hope you will add this rich Kyushu region to your travel destinations, tour all the prefectures of Kyushu, and enjoy the bounty of Kyushu's various regions.
