Kumamoto's Absolute Essentials

Kumamoto Prefecture features the massive 17th-century Kumamoto Castle and Mount Aso, one of the world's largest active calderas. The region preserves its Edo-period heritage through the Hosokawa Gyōbutei samurai residence and the UNESCO-listed Sakitsu Village. In the city center, the Kamitori and Shimotori arcades offer extensive shopping, while the southern town of Hitoyoshi houses the national treasure Aoi Aso Shrine and Hitoyoshi Castle ruins. Natural landmarks include the walk-behind Nabegataki Falls and the hot spring retreat of Kurokawa Onsen.
