    Miyazaki Koyu-gun Kijocho Takajo

    現在は、城山公園という名前の広場になっています。 高台の上にありますが、車で頂上までいけます。 小さな天守のような建物がありますが、他は何もありません。その割に駐車場が大きくて、第2駐車場まであります。 高台から町を見下ろすことができ、展望台と考えて良いかと思います。

An unmissable highlight of Kyushu, Miyazaki prefecture satisfies nature lovers with its dramatic gorges cut out of rugged cliffs, leading into waterfalls and beaches of green-blue water popular among surfers. Takachiho Gorge in the north of the prefecture tells a tale of centuries-old Japanese mythology in a fantastic setting, allowing visitors to explore the waters by boat before heading up to the cave at the Awano Iwato Shrine, where the sun goddess was said to have hidden, plunging the world into darkness.
