    Kagoshima Oshima-gun Yamatoson Kuninao 73
    This log cabin-style building facing the Kuninao Coast is both a cafe and plant-based dyeing shop. You can taste the specialties of Yamato Village in an atmosphere where you can fully feel the slower atmosphere of the island. You can also enjoy the taste of nature as the vegetables used in the dishes are from their organic home-grown vegetable garden. The owner is an artist who has had a solo exhibition in New York, and the shop offers dyeing experiences besides exhibiting and selling a variety of plant-based dyed products.

    座敷席もあり子連れでも大丈夫ですが、量が少ないのでオススメしません。一人でやられているようで、デザートを食べに行くならいいと思います。

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.
