Attractions are optional; ideal as a stopover. **Aso Volcano + Kusasenri:** [โ—‹] Worth half a day for hiking, unwinding, and enjoying set-meal beef + Aso milk ice creamโ€”super chill. **Beppu:** [โ—‹] Home to the "Seven Hells" hot springs. Loved this laid-back cityโ€”great for leisurely city walks. Top recommendation: **Beppu Suginoi Hotel**, a natural hot spring family resort (the gold standard!). Massive and fun enough to spend a whole day without leaving. **Yufuin:** [โ—‹] Missed it this time, but itโ€™s en route from Beppu to Fukuoka. A Ghibli-esque town where you can pet owls! **Final Highlight: Fukuoka Shopping!!!** Only allocated 1.5 days for shoppingโ€”**LaLaport is a must**. Great value for money (even with Shanghai currency ๐Ÿ˜‰), fantastic experience, and super attentive staff. Donโ€™t skip it! ๐Ÿ’ก Extra Tips:

Takachiho Gorge

Takachiho is an absolute nature playground in Miyazaki โ€” think dramatic gorges, crystal-clear boat rides, and mountain vibes that seriously deliver ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿคฉ. Whether you're chasing waterfalls or legends, this place has both. Must-See Takachiho Spots: Takachiho Gorge ๐Ÿ›ถ (Mukoyama, Takachiho, Nishiusuki District, Miyazaki 882-1103; Open 08:30-17:00) โ€” Get ready for some jaw-dropping canyon scenery! Rent a rowboat and float under volcanic cliffs, with waterfalls raining down nearby. Go early for fewer crowds and dreamy morning mist. Hiking trails along the gorge are an easy win, especially in fall when leaves are popping with color. Amaterasu Railway ๐Ÿš‚ โ€” Hop on this unique local train for cute bubble shows and epic mountain views. If cloudy or rainy, donโ€™t stressโ€”the mist makes the scenery feel mystical! Have your camera ready for all the quick photo stops. Amanoiwato Shrine ๐ŸŒ„ (1073-1 Iwato, Takachiho; Open 24/7) โ€” Legendary Japanese mythology comes to life here. Take the forest stroll down to the sacred cave and riverside; super peaceful, even when itโ€™s busy. Eats & Practical Tips: Lunch at Amaterasu Restaurant (1082-12 Iwato, Takachiho) โ€” Try the local chicken, and donโ€™t skip sweet potato snacks for hiking fuel. Transport Hack: Local buses link the main sites, but taxis make the most of your time if you're short on hours. Rental scooters = next-level flexibility, especially for those cheeky views. Pack rain gear just in case โ€” Takachiho weather loves to surprise! Cash is better for small eateries & admission spots. #TakachihoTrip #JapanNature #TravelHacks #GorgeViews #JapanFood
