Historically, Kagoshima has been far from the central government, so it has a unique culture and an educational policy that was nurtured by the local people, which raised many great figures at the end of the Edo period (around late 17 century). Please come and experience Kagoshima’s unique and deep history, traditions, and culture • This tour is recommended for history lovers. Kagoshima is the birthplace of Japan's modernization, but it is also where the last samurai lived. • The Satsuma samurai were feared throughout the country for their strength. But there was more to the Satsuma samurai than just being fearsome. • This tour focuses on the last samurai. Why not join us on a historical trip to experience Satsuma's transition from the samurai era to modernization?
