    Kagoshima Pref. Kirishimashi Hayatochouchi 1487-1

    通りがかりにあった西郷どんが湯治で宿泊した家に立ち寄りました 温泉掛け流しの足湯や物産館も併設されてます 鹿児島郷土[がね]を買ってみました さつま芋入りのかき揚げですね 揚げた姿が「かに(鹿児島弁で がね)」に似ています サクサクで美味しかったです 他の物産は、鹿児島産ではない物も多かったのは、どうかな ? と感じました

Kagoshima Areas

around-area-map

Over 100 active volcanoes across Kagoshima make it one of the Japan's most exciting prefectures. The prefectural capital, Kagoshima city, looks out to one of the prefecture’s most spectacular volcanoes, Sakurajima, an island of its own that can be visited and seen close up or admired from afar, with the promise of breathtaking sunsets complete with frequent puffs of smoke and ash. Down the Satsuma Peninsula, the most southerly part of mainland Japan, waterfalls, sand onsen, and fascinating history await, while Kagoshima's abundance of satsuma imo (sweet potato) provide a wholesome snack as well as one of Japan's favourite drinks - shochu.
