Kai Reisen: Kagoshima

Kagoshima Japan

Kagoshima is the capital of Kagoshima Prefecture on the island of Kyushu. Nicknamed the “Naples of the East” for its bay location (Aira Caldera) and warm climate, Kagoshima offers countless ways to enjoy your stay: the dramatic natural scenery around the active volcano Sakurajima, a rich history shaped by leaders who helped modernize Japan, a zoo and aquarium, relaxing hot springs, and cruises on Kinko Bay. Kagoshima Prefecture also includes around 30 remote islands to the south. These include Yakushima, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its ancient forests; the Tokara Islands, a chain of twelve islands of various sizes stretching about 162 km; and Amami Oshima, Japan’s second-largest remote island.
