Sakurajima travel guide
Sakurajima is the symbol of Kagoshima. Smoke and steam rise almost every
day from Minamidake, its active volcano. Once an island, it became connected
to the Osumi Peninsula during the 1914 eruption, when lava flow filled the
channel between them. Visitors can access the island and its observation
points by ferry.
