A breathtaking gorge formed by cooled and eroded lava from Mount Aso's volcanic activity. The iconic "Manai Falls," one of Japan's Top 100 Waterfalls, is best viewed from a rental boat for an unforgettable experience.

This shrine enshrines the cave where the sun goddess Amaterasu is said to have hidden, as described in Japanese mythology. Nearby is Amano Yasugawara, where countless gods gathered to discuss how to bring light back to the world.

Located in Minami Aso, this spring produces 60 tons of crystal-clear water per minute at a constant 14°C. Designated as one of Japan's Top 100 Springs, visitors can take home the fresh water, which attracts fans from far and wide.

Mt. Aso boasts the world's largest caldera, w/ a circumference of about 130 km. Within the outer rim lies the Aso Five Peaks, including Nakadake, which remains active today. The massive 4-km-wide crater offers a close-up view of dynamic landscapes and intense white smoke rising from the volcano.

One of Aso’s iconic spots, Kusasenri offers stunning views of Mount Naka emitting smoke, a large pond, and grazing horses. Enjoy the vast and beautiful scenery.
