Destinations » Asia » China - Japan - Korea » Kagoshima


Tucked into the protrctive arms of a large sea inlet, Kagoshima is on the southern flak of Kyushu Island. The city has long enjoyed a pleasant climate and productive crops due to a warm marine influence. And her towering Sakurajima volcano causes to compare Kagoshima geographically to the Italian city of Naples.

Attractions

Visit the exquisite Iso-Teien Garden and its villa, built in 1660, and enjoy its gorgeous views before a short ferry ride to smoking Sakurajima for a closeup view of the volcano and its lava fields. Or journey into the countryside to Chiran and its wellpreserved streets lined with samurai homes. Enjoy the beautiful landscape of Lake Ikeda and the stunning vistas of the Satsuma Peninsula.

Shopping

Local Satsuma dolls, unique cards printed with ink made from volcanic ash and unusual wooden toys make interesting souvenirs.

Currency

The yen (JPY) is the currency of Japan.
