About Mt. Aso
Mount Aso is an active volcano (in fact some areas have been closed due to possibility of eruption, etc.), located in the center of Kumamoto. It has a huge caldera.
Explore Mt. Aso!
Less than 30-minute drive from the central takes you to another world.
A bit cloudy.
Laputa Valley
Laputa refers to Castle In The Sky, a Studio Ghibli film. Probably it looks like a view from Laputa?
Daikanbou (大観峰)
Daikanbou is one of the mountains in Aso. Just…amazing. I wished it was summer. Really wanted to see it green. Still beautiful though.
