Aso

We are a travel agency in Fukuoka specializing in Kyushu, Japan.

This information is provided by Japan KYUSHU Tourist to support your journey.

Aso is located almost in the center of Kyushu and boasts one of the world’s largest

calderas, stretching 18 km east-west and 24 km north-south. It was created by four

periods of explosive volcanic activity in ancient times. The caldera is surrounded by

an outer rim with a circumference of around 120 km. Within the Aso Caldera, there

are the Aso Five Peaks, including Mt. Naka-dake—an active volcano where the

crater can be viewed from the top. Daikanbo Peak, on the northern part of the

outer rim, is a must-visit location offering panoramic views of the magnificent

scenery, including the Aso Five Peaks and the serene, beautiful green plains below.

Kanmon Straits, in Kikakyushu

The Kanmon Straits, separating Honshu and Kyushu, is a bustling waterway with

as many as 700 vessels of all sizes passing through each day.

There are seven ways to cross the straits, including the 1,068-meter-long Kanmonkyo

Bridge (exclusive to motor vehicles), the Shin-Kanmon Tunnel for Shinkansen bullet

trains, the Kanmon Pedestrian Tunnel for those crossing on foot, and various

ferry services.
