Hi everyone! Super excited to have begun planning our second trip to Japan in October this year. Our first trip we covered Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka, Hakone and Hiroshima.
This trip, we’re planning on exploring the Kyushu region, with a short stop to Mt Fuji and Fuji-Q on the way back to Tokyo.
Below are the places and attractions we are considering going to. We would love your suggestions on the Kyushu>Fuji leg of the trip including:
– how long to stay in each region.
– if anything else is worth seeing (or skipping).
Fukuoka (3 days)
– Nanzo-in temple trip
– Asahi brewery
– Dazaifu, Tenmangu
– Yatai+++
Oita (2 days)
– Kokonoe Yume Otsuribashi (pedestrian bridge)
-Takegawara Onsen (sand baths)
– Yufuin
– The Hells of Beppu (have read animals are kept in appalling conditions, is this at all? Wondering if we skip)
Miyazaki (1 day, unsure yet if doable as a day trip from elsewhere)
Takachiho Gorge – hire boats
Try somen nagashi
Kumamoto (2 days)
– Mount Aso
– Kurokawa Onsen (3 pass tegatta)
– Kumamoto Castle
Fuji (1 day)
– Mt Fuji
