    Kumamoto Pref. Amakusashi Amakusamachishimodaminami
    "A 50-minute drive from Amakusa Airport, this scenic spot on the west coast of Amakusa has been designated as a national scenic spot and a natural monument. The coastal area has a stretch of 20 to 80-meter high cliffs, which together with large and small islands, reefs and caves form a unique landscape. The largest, ""Myonken Domon"" cave mouth, can be easily accessed by small boats, and you can see sea caves and stalactites that cross each other. The scenery at dusk is even more remarkable, and the view from nearby Nishibiratsuki Park and the Kikaigaura Observation Deck has been selected as one of the Japan Sunset Best 100."

Kumamoto lies in the center of Kyushu, a calm prefecture perfect for easy strolls around the historic center and lazy evenings in the natural hot springs at Kurokawa Onsen. For a slightly more strenuous activity, head to Mount Aso, whose surrounding hills offer hiking opportunities aplenty with views over the active volcano.
