The tour guide was very nice; knowing we'd gotten up early, he basically covered the key points and then let us rest 😴~ The driver was very experienced, like he'd driven this route many times, and actually drove quite fast 😆😆 Our first stop was Akihachi Cave, my first time entering a limestone cave. It's huge, about a kilometer long, and truly spectacular; the natural scenery is definitely worth seeing!! Our second stop was Motonosumi Inari Shrine ⛩️ It was freezing cold at this time of day, but the photos were spectacular 🤳. You don't need to go specifically; just go if you happen to be passing by 😂 Our third stop was Kakubashi Bridge, another beautiful spot for photos 🤳, and the sea was absolutely gorgeous 😎. Definitely worth a visit!!
We chartered a car from Fukuoka to a hot spring hotel in Yufuin. We first visited Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine. Because of the heavy traffic on Saturday, the driver suggested adjusting the itinerary and having lunch at a rest stop along the way before heading to Yufuin to avoid having to queue for lunch. After arriving, we parked the car in the parking lot in the middle of Yunotsubo, which was only a ten-minute walk from Lake Kinrin, which was great.
This itinerary is highly recommended. For those without a car, it's a very convenient option for seeing the most beautiful sunsets. Highly recommended! It's truly stunning when the weather is good. A highly recommended itinerary.
Practical, a must-have for the Osaka-Takamatsu-Hakata Setouchi International Art Festival
