    Kagoshima Kumage-gun Minamitanecho Kukinaga 4058-banchi 1
    Tanegashima Island is thought to have been strongly connected with rice since ancient times. This museum features exhibits related to red rice, which is believed to have been introduced to the island long, long ago from the south. Exhibits cover subjects including the folk customs involving red rice practiced at the Homan Shrine as well as the culture of rice cultivation on Tanegashima Island. Visitors can learn about Minamitane Town through a video about the town's highlights, performing arts, events, and more that is played in the museum's theater. There is also a museum shop that sells red rice, akagome amazake (a sweet drink made from fermented red rice), and other great souvenirs.

    古代米といえば黒米を思い浮かべますが、赤米も古代米の一つでそれらに関する展示がされていて、入場も無料です。 展示もそんなになく短い時間で見られますので宝満神社の参拝とセットで立ち寄ってはいかがでしょうか？ 駐車場もあるしトイレも綺麗なので。

    Kagoshima Kumage-gun Nakatane Cho Masuda 1887-1

    実際に使われている宇宙通信所なので入れないときがあります。 ２泊3日で種子島に行きましたが2日目がたまたま延期になったH2Aの打ち上げ日となり、初日と2日目は打ち上げに伴う業務で閉鎖されていました。 ３日目に行きましたが色々な人工衛星のミニチュアやパンフレットに実際にパラボラアンテナが回る様子などを見られます。

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.
