Despite some areas of the caster were still under repair due to the earthquake some years ago, the repair for the major part of the castle had been completed.  It is anice place to go, especially in Spring.

Shuiqian Temple Chengqu Garden is also a place where Kumamoto can go shopping. It takes ten or twenty minutes to take a car in the city. The whole garden is still very design. There is a very beautiful lake in the middle. There are many fat fish in it. If you like history, go shopping for a while. If it is normal, it is enough to go shopping for up to an hour and a half. If the weather is good, it will still be quite a film.

It is a sightseeing train from Kumamoto Station to Triangle Station. The calm atmosphere is black with gold-stained appearance, carved with angel glass, wooden ceilings with gold logo, classical patterned fluff cover, and colorful ice chip glass everywhere.

Next to Kumamoto City is the Sakurajima Farm. The place is not big. In fact, it is a small market. There are food and shopping. There are still a lot of people. You can find a place to sit down and eat. If you don&rsquo;t eat, you can go shopping in 20 minutes. It&rsquo;s not a place to come. But because it is next to Kumamoto City, it is not bad to come over and stroll around.

Time:	2024年10月9日–10月10日 (UTC+9) ENDED
