    Miyazaki Pref. Miyazakishi Jingu 2-4-4
    A part of the Miyazaki Prefectural Museum of Nature and History, the Minkaen, a collection of historic private homes, is the location of Important Cultural Properties such as the Former Fujita Residence and the Former Kuroki Residence. The buildings show what Japan’s ancient thatched roof houses looked like and were moved here from Gokase-cho in the northwestern area of Miyazaki Prefecture.

    宮崎神宮に隣接する総合博物館の屋外エリアにある復元された民家で、特色のある4棟である旧藤田家住宅、旧黒木家住宅、椎葉の民家、米良の民家が並んでいます。総合博物館自体が無料ですのでこちらも無料です。よく整備もされ解説もわかりやすかったです。

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.
