Famous tourist attractions in Kyushu area, see active volcanoes up close

In addition to visiting the city center in Kumamoto, there are also more remote attractions that you cannot miss. #Asovolcano is a famous tourist attraction in Kyushu and an active volcano. 🚊Take JR from Kumamoto Station to Higo Dairyu, Then to Aso Station, the journey takes about 1 hour and 30 minutes. On the right hand side as soon as you exit Aso Station is the "Sanko Bus Aso Sales Office". There are three Kumamon bears sitting at the station, which is easy to recognize. You need to buy a ticket from the automatic ticket machine here. The price of a one-day ticket for the "Aso Hokuchi Line" is JPY 2,000/person, and you can take bus No. 8. 🚍When you get off at Asosan terminal, you need to transfer to the shuttle bus (one way JPY 700). If you don’t want to pay and you are in good physical condition, you can choose to walk up the mountain, which takes about 27 minutes. 🌋In fact, I smelled a strong sulfur smell as soon as I got out of the car. At that time, we saw some thick smoke, so we could only watch from a distance. However, it is not worth the trip to see the remains of the volcanic eruption and the magnificent scenery. Return to Asoyama terminal and wait for bus No. 8. While waiting, I saw ice cream with volcanic ash, so I was curious about what it tasted like, so I bought it to try. Who knew it was sesame flavor, but just a bit strong. In addition, the hot いきなり団子 are delicious local Kumamoto snacks. . . Aso volcano 📍Address: 〒869-2225 Aso City #NovemberGood Places2024 #usj
