Kumamoto Aso Volcano & Takachiho Small Train Day Tour

Description

Takachiho Forest Railway (Fee not included) In Takachiho, an old railway line has been given new life as the Takachiho Sightseeing Railway. The open-air carriages slowly depart from Takachiho Station, traveling along the original Takachiho Railway, taking you on a journey through the mountains and the sea of clouds. Takachiho Shrine Takachiho Shrine is located in Takachiho Town, Miyazaki Prefecture, Japan, and is one of the most representative ancient shrines in the area. It is said to have been built more than 1,900 years ago and enshrines deities such as "Takachiho Sumera Mikoto" and "Jissha Daimyojin," and is regarded as the head shrine protecting the Takachiho area. Takachiho Gorge Takachiho Gorge is a valley formed by the ancient volcanic eruption of Mount Aso. It is characterized by cliffs on both sides and the 17-meter-high Manai Falls. Along with the beautiful scenery, there are three bridges built over the same gorge, which is also part of the beauty of Takachiho Gorge. Kusasenri Plateau at Mount Aso Endless grasslands and grazing cattle and horses allow you to forget the hustle and bustle of the city.
