Why I want to go back to KYUSHU, Japan

Поделиться

  • Опубликовано: 26 май 2021
  • Things to do in Kyushu, the southern-most of Japan's main island, full of volcanic activity, hot springs and interesting places to visit - and cute fruit bus stops!
    I really enjoyed visiting Kyushu when I stayed in Fukuoka and went on day trips around the island. But there was lots I missed! With the new branch of the shinkansen (bullet train) to Nagasaki opening late 2022, it's a great time to go. This video's a round-up of ideas for your second/third/fourth Japan trip, including Nagasaki, Shimabara (City of Swimming Carp), Huis Ten Bosch, Kumamoto (for Kumamon hunting!), Yutoku Inari Shrine, Yufuin near Beppu, Mount Aso, the Unzen Hells and Mount Unzen, another active volcano in Japan.

    I've only been to Japan once, and my friend was living in Fukuoka. I was glad that got me to go to a 2nd city, rather than just Tokyo. It really made my trip feel more well-rounded.

    • @cakeswithfaces
      @cakeswithfaces  3 года назад

      Absolutely - the rest of Japan is completely different from Tokyo so I'm glad you got to see more of it! It must have been good having a friend who knows all the best local places to go as well.

    Your guidebook has added Kyushu to my travel plan for Japan, great to see this video! Kagoshima minus the dust looks perfect for that "I've been travelling photo"

    • @cakeswithfaces
      @cakeswithfaces  3 года назад +1

      Ooh good choice! Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Luckily I didn't have any trouble with the volcanic ash in Kagoshima, although you can see it in the gutters. It can be a problem for locals though if they try and dry washing outside.

    If you are looking for Off-beaten paths or want to avoid Tourist traps, and can speak the basic "tourism language" in Japanese, as a local person of the country I recommend visiting remote islands.
    en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Got%C5%8D_Islands
    en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakushima
    en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amami_%C5%8Cshima
    The above three examples are the typical remote islands of Kyushu as travel destinations that Japanese people think of. (I mean, those are relatively convenient to get there (than other small and minor islands), and there are accommodations for travelers as well.)

    Had my second Vaccine 2 weeks ago so I should be fine now. All I need to do now is wait until Japan opens it's borders again to the Netherlands. As it stands they closed them at least for Dutch citizens. I was in Kumamoto and Beppu in 2019 myself. Had a good time there. Indeed a shame that the earthquake damaged the castle, but I did visit the palace vicinity, just the not castle insides as those were being renovated/repaired.

I try to learn some Japanese and get out to less touristy places, smaller towns. My Japanese teacher whom I adore lives in Miyazaki, I might visit there too. Good videos, I watched them to the end which is rare for me haha. Subscribed.
    Edit: Btw, from Fukuoka, maybe hop on the ocean ferry to Pusan for a day or 2.

    i going to japan for the first time for 12 days during the sakura season in april 23, entering and leaving from narita. however i really want to go to kumamoto and especially the nagasaki biopark. would you recommend squeezing tokyo,kyoto,osaka in the itenerary? or would that be too much?

    • @cakeswithfaces
      @cakeswithfaces  Год назад

      Ok I just looked up Nagasaki Biopark and after seeing that guinea pig bridge and the capybara, I want to go there too now! :-) I really want to go to the Kumamon Park in Kumamoto, and you can get a boat across to Nagasaki and the Unzen Hells. There's enough to do in Kyushu that you could easily just go there are Tokyo.
      You could stop off at Kyoto on the way from Tokyo to Kumamoto, then Osaka on the way back, to break up the long train journey. Or take an internal flight when you land and make your way back up on the bullet train.
      It is quite a lot, but do-able if you spend only a short time in some places. If you're thinking of cutting anything out of the itinerary, I'd say Osaka because it's a city like Tokyo (while it has a different vibe, for your first trip the other places are more different from each other).
      Hope that helps!

    • @cakeswithfaces
      @cakeswithfaces  Месяц назад

      You can get the pass for 3, 5 or 7 days, and there are passes for the whole of Kyushu, as well as northern Kyushu (that's the one I got earlier this year) and southern Kyushu.
      Depending on your plans, you'd need to work out when it's best to have each pass, compared to buying individual train tickets. Ideally you'd do most of your long distance travelling within the period of a rail pass, to save the most money, then get individual tickets for shorter/fewer journeys eg if you're staying in one place for a few days.

    • @cakeswithfaces
      @cakeswithfaces  3 года назад +1

      Personally, I prefer not to rent a car, because neither of us particularly enjoy driving, and it feels more like an adventure on the train! I just prefer not to drive on holiday - then we can both have a drink if we want to, and we've always found we can get to places we want to go on the train. In Japan there are also lots of tolls on the roads, which can add up (although there are passes that make it easier). The train system is so good that I've always preferred to use that.
