    知覧特攻平和会館から指宿に行く途中に立ち寄りました。 何棟もハウスがあり、いろいろな種類のいちごを生産しているそうです。 前日の天気が悪かったせいか、あまり甘くはなかったんですが、農家さん直売なので安心かなと思いました。

    Kagoshima Ibusuki-shi Kaimonkawashiri 6229-2
    This herb plantation, Japan's first, was established in 1941. Located in the foothills of Mt. Kaimon, it grows dozens of varieties of herbs including some 10,000 Hosho camphor trees. The Hosho essential oil for which the plantation is best known is extracted from the leaves of a subvariety of camphor tree with strong sedative effects. During its heyday, the plant was grown all over the Nansatsu region, which is said to have produced enough leaves to extract five tons of essential oil. The oil is popular for its refreshingly sweet forest scent. The plantation features a shop that sells herbal teas, fragrances, and other items as well as a cafe that serves seasonal herbal teas.

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.
