Two performances a day, 2:00—2:30 in the afternoon, very suitable for parent-child activities, of course, adults are also very happy, the bear minister is cute, lively and interactive. Not bad 👍

Mount Aso

Azu is home to flowers, birds and butterflies, with a unique weather environment. More than 2,500 mm of rain falls on grasslands every year, penetrating into vast lands, becoming a source of water for six first-class rivers, providing water to about 2.3 million people in Kyushu. There are up to 1,500 places in Asu called "name water". Because the grassland is fertile, the grass grows is suitable for grazing. The milk produced here is also very fresh. This cup of Asu Mountain's milk is dried.

Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Shrine

Deep in the secrets of the Aso region, there is actually a very famous hidden attraction. That is Kamishikimi Kumanoza Shrine. Because the shrine is located in the deep mountains and dense forests, on the way to the temple, you can see moss-covered stone lanterns and torii. The moment you step in, it feels like you have walked into another world, so this place is also called the "mysterious entrance to the other world."   The two popular anime "Firefly Forest" and "Natsume's Book of Friends" were filmed here, adding a touch of mystery to this place, attracting countless anime fans like me to come here for pilgrimage

One of a kind experience and breath taking views to absorb should it be of acceptable air quality at the crater area/ proximity.

Going to the shrine after the snow, there is a quiet beauty. Just met a couple of new people in Japan to hold a wedding at the shrine, very happy feeling.
