Kyushu

Kyushu is Japan’s southernmost main island, offering a rich mix of volcanic landscapes, hot springs, historic sites, and vibrant regional culture. Known for its welcoming people and slower pace of life, Kyushu is home to diverse prefectures like Fukuoka, Nagasaki, Kumamoto, Kagoshima, and more — each with its own unique flavor. From the steaming onsens of Beppu to the ancient castles of Kumamoto and the natural beauty of Aso and Kirishima, Kyushu is ideal for travelers seeking variety, authenticity, and unforgettable experiences beyond the usual tourist trail.
