Aoshima Shrine in Miyazaki Prefecture. It has a history of about 1200 years. In ancient times, the entire island was considered a sacred area, and the general public could not enter the island until the middle of the Edo period. It is a beautiful place with both the sky and the sea.

Sunrise on the Nata Coast The sun seemed to be smiling in the Torii (shrine gate).

Black hair buried Torii (shrine gate) 2019.04.30 The massive explosion of Sakurajima on January 12, 1914, 1914 (Taisho 3) filled the Kurogami area with volcanic ash and pumice. The Torii (shrine gate) gate of the Beli Gosha Shrine (Kurokami Shrine), which was 3 meters high, was so terrible that it was buried, leaving only Kasagi. The Torii (shrine gate) gate has become less than the height of a person, but the mayor of Higashi-Sakurajima Village at the time stopped digging it up to convey the threat of Eruption to future generations, so it remains in its original form to the present day. The Torii (shrine gate) gate of the buried Kurokami Shrine and the gatepost of the Nagano clan house were designated as natural monuments of the prefecture on April 28, 1958 (Showa 33). Next door, an old Akou tree that miraculously survived stands quietly.

Hello! I'm posting from Ichiki Kushikino City, which is located on the west coast of Kagoshima Prefecture. The city is Famous as the "City of Tuna". Thank you, everyone!

At the Fukuoka Castle Sakura Festival. This year, a virtual Fukuoka Castle tower was built and lit up ✨?✨ I was able to take pictures of beautiful night cherry blossoms and cool Japanese scenery!

In the past, I often saw astragalus fields dyed pink, but recently I have seen them less and less. At that time, I found a place where the astragalus and the yellow flowers blooming in the field were blooming together, and I took a picture. I hope that this kind of scenery will remain forever as a spring landscape in Japan.

During spring break, I went with my busy father to see the illuminated cherry blossoms in Yusui Town, Aira District, Kagoshima Prefecture! Unlike the cherry blossoms you see during the day, I felt something like the aura of cherry blossoms that only appear at night! I don't often go out with my father, so it was a very good memory!

Hashima Island, located off the coast of Kyushu Nagasaki, is a coal mining facility that is now in ruins, called Gunkanjima because of its shape. It can be reached by boat in 40 minutes from Nagasaki Port, so you can go ashore on a tour, but from the coastline of the Nomozaki area in the southern part of Nagasaki City, you can see Gunkanjima from land. This view is also a view that I would like to keep forever, but it may not be possible to see it in a few years due to the progress of decay.

Mt. Sakurajima as seen from Sengan-en garden, Kagoshima. Seen from this angle, Mt. Sakurajima reminded me that, as we build houses, roads, and many other things around us, it is important to both preserve the nature around us and find balance in living with nature. There are many places that have been overrun by human construction and I hope that in Japan, and around the world, we will strive to coexist with nature and preserve the things that make it special.

Shooting ? on a trip to Kyushu Yonezuka ?, which is said to be the dimple of Aso ́- It seems to have been formed by an eruption, It had ? a very beautiful shape There also seems to be a legend, It is said that Takeiwa Tatsumikoto, the deity of Aso Shrine, built the mountain by piling up the harvested rice, and the hollow at the top is said to be the mark of scooping the rice with the palm of his hand and distributing it to the poor Although it was from a distance, I was glad that I was able ☺️ to take a picture

The Mizonoguchi Cave in Soto City, Kagoshima Prefecture, is a cave created over a long period of time by spring water from the Kirishima Mountains, and is a power spot in Kagoshima. It can be said that it is a landscape typical of Japan with many volcanoes, and the inside of the cave was a mysterious place with clear air.

Sogi Falls It is located in Isa City, Kagoshima. I went there for the first time, but it was quite powerful because it is said to be the Niagara of the East. It's not pictured here, but the surrounding area was in full bloom of autumn leaves, so it's a good place to look for autumn leaves.

I took this photo on the Madama Coast in Oita Prefecture, Kyushu. I also learned that you can't see such a scene unless you go at low tide. I have relatives, so I'm thinking of going again. The beach I saw for the first time was very beautiful.

It was founded in the 4th year of Tencho (827) Yusuhara Hachimangu Shrine (Oita City, Oita Prefecture). The autumn leaves seen from the corridor look like paintings.
