【The Okunoin Temple, the birthplace of Renkein】

The most impressive feature here is the "Hiryu no Bell," the world's largest temple bell, weighing nearly 40 tons. Experience the "Temple Bell Prayer Experience" in a solemn atmosphere, personally feeling the awe and purification of mind and body brought by the bell's sound, and sincerely pray for the fulfillment of your wishes and the arrival of good luck.
Mizumoto Orange Orchard
Located in Amamizu-cho, Tamana City, Mizumoto Orange Orchard is a traditional farm with a 140-year history. The soil here is rich in minerals, and the owner is meticulous about the air and soil quality, insisting on using no herbicides whatsoever. It is precisely this dedication to natural produce that has resulted in top-quality mandarins cultivated here, which were once selected as a tribute to the Japanese Imperial Family!
【Yuming Ramen】
When visiting Tamana City, you absolutely cannot miss the local soul food, "Tamana Ramen"! As the birthplace of the well-known "Kumamoto Ramen," Tamana Ramen holds an irreplaceable historical position in the Japanese ramen world. Its greatest feature lies in the rich and mellow pork bone broth, simmered for a long time, paired with smooth, medium-thin noodles, and topped with fragrant "caramelized garlic slices" when served.
【Yachiyoza】
Built in 1910, the Yachiyo-za Theater in Yamaga City, Kumamoto Prefecture, is a historic wooden theater designated as an Important Cultural Property of Japan. It perfectly preserves the traditional Edo-era Kabuki theater structure, including a manually operated rotating stage, flower-lined aisles, and "masu-seats" for the audience. Most striking are the brightly colored retro advertisements on the ceiling and the Western-style brass chandeliers, creating a stunning fusion of East and West. Stepping into the theater is like stepping back in time to the prosperous Meiji and Taisho eras. The theater exudes a strong sense of nostalgia, creating a dreamlike space reminiscent of a movie scene, making it an ideal spot for taking retro-style photos.
