    This is a large-scale stone arch aqueduct built in 1854 by Yasunosuke Futa, the village chief of Yabe, in order to send water to the dry Shiraitodai area, and is designated as an important cultural asset. At present, access to some areas is limited due to the effects of the Kumamoto earthquake and water discharge has been stopped.

Kumamoto Areas

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.
