Trip to Takachiho Gorge in South Japan Miyazaki

in #japan6 years ago (edited)

Whattap everybody! Thanks for stopping by, I'm Jon Bear and today I'm gonna share my recent trip to Miyazaki, Japan.

I uploaded a video of it here on youtube check it out

Me and Kana started our trip in Fukuoka, where we got a rental car. Kana was late so I us some coffees at a nearby coffee shop.

Our trip took an unexpected turn as we passed the Sapporo beer factory. We figured we might as well stop by, we've got time. Fortunate for me, the factory tour to include free beer! Unfortunate for Kana, she's the designated driver.

Though I was half drunk, it did not stop the trip from continuing! Our next stop was a famous waterfall in Kumamoto.

I try to look cool in this photo but let's be real, I was getting drenched wet from the waterfall xD. This place was really neat though. Not a lot of people around so we got some nice private time to enjoy the ambiance.

At night we stayed at a private outdoor onsen in the middle of nowhere. If you are ever going to Japan, this is a must experience.

The next day we were headed for the beautiful Takachiho gorge but not before stopping by the Tunnel Station, where hundreds of barrels of plum wine (sake) is stored.

(we couldn't drink any of it though)

And finally we get to the gorge

I paddled our rowboat down the gorge and it was breathtaking. And I needed all the breaths I could spare to row the boat, that aint easy!
