Takachiho Gorge is located in Miyazaki Prefecture in Kyushu, Japan. It is a tourist attraction famous for its magnificent natural landscape and rich myths and legends. The canyon here was formed by the lava from the Aso volcano flowing through the Gokase River and then cooling, forming a 100-meter-high cliff that stretches for 7 kilometers, showing the uncanny natural beauty. The main features of Takachiho Gorge include its turquoise river water and multiple waterfalls, the most famous of which is "Manai Falls", which is about 17 meters high and is one of Japan's top 100 waterfalls. Visitors can walk along the trails of the canyon to enjoy various natural landscapes, or rent a boat to experience the spectacular waterfalls up close. This is an important birthplace of Japanese mythology, with many stories related to Amaterasu and other gods circulating, adding a sense of mystery to the place. The four seasons of Takachiho Gorge also add different charms to the place. Cherry blossoms in spring, greenery in summer, red leaves in autumn and snowy scenery in winter. No matter when you visit, you can feel the beauty of nature. This is a tourist attraction that combines magnificent natural landscapes with profound cultural heritage. Friends who like in-depth travel cannot miss it. # Sign up for November hotel sleeper trial #JapanTravel #JapaneseAttractions #KyushuAttractions

Takachiho Gorge is definitely one of the most unforgettable attractions during my trip to Japan. Its fairyland-like scenery makes people feel like they are in a dream world. The beautiful cliffs on both sides of the canyon and the rich vegetation complement each other, and with the spectacular waterfalls pouring down from the heights, everything here is like a vivid natural painting that takes your breath away. The experience of rowing a small boat is the climax of this trip. The boat sails gently through the calm stream, and the reflections of the surrounding mountains and waterfalls come into view. When the boat gradually approaches the waterfall with the water flow, the water mist gently sprinkles on the face. It is an exciting and intoxicating moment, as if entering a fairy tale world. This feeling of being closely connected with nature makes people feel relaxed and comfortable. The beauty of Takachiho Gorge lies not only in its magnificent landscape, but also in the tranquility that can calm the soul. It's like a dream-like travel experience that makes people forget to leave, as if the world is temporarily isolated from the hustle and bustle. #100 Ways to Travel

There is a place in Miyazaki that shows you a mysterious and unique view created by nature! This time, I will introduce "Takachiho Gorge" in Takachiho Town, Miyazaki Prefecture. Takachiho Gorge, which spans the three prefectures of Miyazaki, Kumamoto, and Oita, is a 1.7km long valley, and the river that flows through it is emerald green, creating a truly mysterious view. The waterfall you can see in the photo is called Manai Falls and is a popular spot that people come all the way from overseas to see, and it is one of the spectacular views that you will want to see until you die. In this post, I will focus on the following! ① Access strategy ② The fact that chartered boats are too expensive ③ It's recommended to stop by when sightseeing in Kumamoto rather than Miyazaki ④ Experience the coolness of flowing somen noodles [① Access strategy] It is common to visit by car 🚗 Since many people visit, there are many parking lots, but they vary from close to far away, and if you find a parking lot that is a little far away, you have to climb a hill, so it's quite difficult 💦 The main parking lots are as follows 🅿️ ① Closest: Oshioi Parking Lot 500 yen 40 cars Right next to the boat dock ② Middle: Araragi Parking Lot 300 yen 50 cars 15 minutes walk to Manai Falls ③ Farthest: Ohashi Parking Lot Free 30 cars To Manai Falls 30 minutes walk　　※There is a shuttle bus that costs 100 yen　　Operates only on busy days Whether you can get through ① or ② depends on the timing I was able to get through ① because it was just before lunchtime and it was the switching time ✌️ Of course, even if you don't have a car, there is a paid shuttle bus from Kumamoto Station in Kumamoto Prefecture and Nobeoka Station in Miyazaki Prefecture *Reservation required There are many other access methods, which are listed on the website, so please check there for details ✅ This is the site that comes up at the top when you search for "Takachiho Gorge" [② The charter boat is too expensive] First of all, you need to make a reservation for a charter boat! There are ① Internet reservations and ② same-day reservations for boarding the charter boat 📝 You can make a reservation for boarding on the internet reservation site from "1 week to 2 days before" the boarding date 🉑 ① Internet reservations Reservation period: From 1 week before (9:00) to 2 days before (9:00) the scheduled boarding date ② Same-day reservations: The number of same-day tickets varies depending on the reservation status of the internet reservations. *If the reservation is sold out, tickets will not be sold on the day. The important price is per boat, ・Peak season & Friday to Monday 5,100 yen ・Normal season & Tuesday to Thursday 4,100 yen I think that the sense of price is different for each person, but for me it was too expensive and I couldn't ride... (By the way, I went alone) However, if you can make a reservation, it is definitely worth riding, but you can also enjoy it from the promenade 😁 [③ It is recommended to stop by while sightseeing in Kumamoto rather than Miyazaki] Is there anyone who is thinking of going to Takachiho as a tourist in Miyazaki? If you go to Miyazaki, you might think of Miyazaki Airport, but it is located almost on the opposite side of Miyazaki Prefecture, and it is quite a long way to get there from Miyazaki Airport, so it is surprisingly more efficient to go there after sightseeing in Kumamoto ✨ Miyazaki's tourist attractions are also concentrated in the south, so if you go, I recommend stopping by after sightseeing in Kumamoto! [④ Cool off with Nagashi Somen] You can actually eat Nagashi Somen at Takachiho Gorge 😍 When it's hot, you want to have a cool meal! You can do so at a restaurant called "Chiho no Ie" that was founded in 1955 🥢 Apparently, Takachiho is the birthplace of Nagashi Somen! 🫨The price is 600 yen per person! It's cheap even when you consider the experience fee! They also offer salt-grilled yamame trout and grilled rice balls 🍙There is also a 1500 yen plan that includes everything! Why not try the original Nagashi Somen here for lunch? That's all! What do you think? The hot summer continues, so why not choose this place for sightseeing? ? 〜〜〜〜〜Information〜〜〜〜〜📍Takachiho GorgeAddress: 204 Mukaiyama, Takachiho-cho, Nishiusuki-gun, MiyazakiAccess: 1.5 hours from Kumamoto Airport, 2 hours and 15 minutes from Miyazaki AirportOpening hours: 8:30-17:00Fee: Free *Separate fees for parking and boat〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜〜 #besttrip2023 #breathtakingview #takachihogorge #miyazakitourism #negativeions

Let's go paddling in the valley at Takachiho Gorge in Miyazaki City. This valley was formed by the eruption of Mount Aso almost 1,000 years ago. After the volcano cooled down, it was eroded into a beautiful and unusual valley. In addition to walking through the nature in the valley, the most popular activity for tourists is paddling. We have to walk down to the boat rental point and rent a boat, which can be paddled for 30 minutes on the designated route. We can paddle in the beautiful valley, the emerald-green water, and little ducks swim by to say hello every now and then. There is also a small waterfall to see. It can be said that this is an activity that should not be missed. I assure you that everyone will be impressed and enjoy the wonderful paddling. #JapanTravel #trip #JapanReview #Kayaking #Japan Address - Takachiho Gorge Atmosphere/Location - The river flows through the Takachiho Valley. It has beautiful nature and blue water. It is especially beautiful during the autumn leaves. Highlight - Paddling through the gorge Average price per person - Boat rental around 600 baht for 30 minutes (maximum 3 people) Score - 10/10

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Takachiho Gorge, designated as a national scenic spot and natural monument of Japan, is a cliff gorge with columnar joints formed by lava flows from the former Aso volcanic activity that flowed along the Gokase River and rapidly cooled. It is not difficult to travel independently. The air is fresh and the weather is comfortable when you get there. In fact, there are beautiful scenery to be enjoyed in Takachiho Gorge all year round, including spring cherry blossoms and winter snow. In the early summer, you can breathe the fresh mountain air during the new green period. In autumn, the maple leaves dye the surrounding environment a bright red. The beautiful scenery always attracts tourists to check in and take photos. Those who like hiking will be happy. If you want to take a boat to appreciate the "Manai Waterfall" and experience the beauty and grandeur of nature, you must make a reservation in advance. The Takachiho Gorge, which stretches for about 7 kilometers, is located in the north of Miyazaki Prefecture. Even if you start from the center of Miyazaki City, it takes about 2 to 3 hours. If you don’t have access to JR, you must take a bus. When driving by yourself, please note that the road down the mountain into the canyon is full of hairpin bends, so novice drivers should be careful.

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Takachiho ryuusui noodles were originally invented by the Japanese, so when you come to Takachiho Gorge to visit Manai Falls, if time permits, it is recommended to eat here because there are so many people queuing. Chiho no Ya Yuanzu Nagashima is located in a tourist association food court next to a waterfall. It emphasizes that it is the ancestor of Nagashima Shima founded in 1955. If it is your first time eating it, you should try the flowing noodles, which are served with spring water, so you need to be quick with your eyes and hands. However, in the end, the noodles that could not be picked up were delivered at the exit. The thin noodles are a bit like rice noodles, but have the chewy texture of buckwheat noodles. They are dipped in the very refreshing mushroom cold noodle sauce and are very delicious. There is also the local specialty of grilled river fish Shannv (Sakura Gelsemium) with walnut soy sauce glutinous rice ball skewers. It can be said to be delicious and fun, but playing once is enough.

#springwander "Takachiho Gorge" is a scenic spot with majestic columnar joints along the Gokase River. It is a natural art that is said to have been made by cooling down the pyroclastic flow of Mt. Aso that flowed in a long time ago. A promenade is set up along the canyon, and it is full of highlights such as the beautiful "Manai Falls" and the legendary "Onihachi Power Stone".

Ryokan Shinsen, a Japanese hot spring journey🏯 Every time I set foot on Japanese soil, I'm captivated by the meticulousness and tranquility.

Attentive service, feeling the warmth of home🏠 Here, I experienced unparalleled hospitality. The staff were warm and attentive, not only preparing a hearty breakfast but also serving hot tea upon my return from sightseeing. This meticulous care made me feel right at home. Onsen bathing, a journey of relaxation♨️ The onsen experience at Ryokan Shinsen was a highlight of my trip. The onsen water is crystal clear and the temperature is just right. Soaking in it felt incredibly therapeutic, especially after a day of exploring. Nearby attractions, exploring the mystical Takachiho🗾 Beyond the charm of the ryokan itself, Takachiho offers many attractions worth visiting. Takachiho Shrine, Kaguraden, Tamadare Falls... each place is filled with mystery and beauty. And conveniently, these attractions are all within easy reach of the ryokan.
