Overview of your Kagoshima tour

Natural steam sandbaths are something you would want to try at least once in your life. Your body is covered with sand heated by hot springs that naturally well up from the earth. Tosenkyo rotating flowing noodles which swirl around in front of your eyes is a unique dining experience. Or you can enjoy handmade soba noodles in Chiran Chiran Peace Museum preserves and displays materials left by the deceased Army pilots of the unprecedented ramming attack known as Kamikaze during the final moments of WWⅡ. The charm of the Chiran Samurai Residence Complex lies in the 700m stonewall-lined paths, the scattered Samurai houses and the beautifully landscaped gardens within. This is where the breath of history is still felt after more than 270 years.
