It is named after ""Kenmun,"" which are nature guardian deities that live in the forests of the Amami Islands according to local folklore.

The brown sugar making experience, which takes about an hour, allows participants to make two varieties of simple old-fashioned candy using brown sugar. The facility offers a daylong ""villager experience"" that includes a choice of two activities as well the rental of a villager costume."

Kagoshima Areas

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.
