It was released by "egawauemon." Are you looking for beautiful your next summer getaway? If so, then you came to the right place. In this article, we'll introduce tourist information and travel tips for those traveling to the islands of Kagoshima Prefecture! This video shows aerial views of the remote islands in Kagoshima prefecture, which are overflowing with natural beauty. There are six remote islands introduced in this video: Yakushima, Yoronjima, Tanegashima, Koshikijima, Kakeromajima, and Amami Oshima. The Best Remote Islands to Enjoy Water Sports! If you're looking to enjoy water sports and activities on a remote island in Kagoshima Prefecture, we recommend Yoronjima and Kakeromajima. Yoronjima is an island full of flowers and coral reefs. It has Terasaki Beach, which became famous as a location featured in the movie "Glasses" (めがね), and Yurigahama Beach, a pure white sandy beach that appears only during low tide. The sea is crystal clear, and in the summer months it's crowded with water sports enthusiasts. The main tourist attraction on Kakeromajima is the 300-year-old Indian coral tree trees that line the street near the beach. The bright red flowers on these trees bloom from May to June. There is also the beautiful beach Surihama, which is called the White Village. Water sports are very popular here. It's a small island, about 20 minutes by ferry from Amami Oshima, and the main spots on the island can be visited on a day trip. The Best Remote Islands to Enjoy the Ocean, Mountains and Villages! If you want to enjoy the beauty of the sea, mountains, and countryside of Kagoshima Prefecture, we recommend Koshikijima and Amami Oshima. There are many viewing points, such as a coastline with bizarre rock structures and the ruins of a village from the Edo period. We recommend going for a drive while looking out at the breathtaking scenery. Koshikijima is located just 50 minutes from Sendai Harbor (川内港) by high speed boat, and it's easily accessible from Kagoshima City, so a day trip to the island is possible. Amami Oshima is famous for its beautiful blue waters. The subtropical oceanic climate has led to the emergence of virgin forests, which are home to rare plant and animal species. The island is home to a wealth of rare flora and fauna, and you can even go on a canoeing adventure through a mangrove forest! Special Experience on Kagoshima's Islands If you're looking for a unique experience you wont find anywhere else, then we recommend Yakushima and Tanegashima. Yakushima was registered as a World Heritage Site in 1993, and trekking is very popular here. You can feel the mystical power of Yakushima by walking along popular routes, such as Shiratani Unsui Gorge. Yakushima also has hot springs, and the Hirauchi Kaichu Natural Onsen (hot springs), which emerge from the sea for just two hours before and after low tide, are a tourist attraction not to be missed! Tanegashima is famous as the birthplace of guns in Japan. A visit to Tanegashima Space Center, which sits at the forefront of space research and development, is another experience you don't want to overlook. Once You've Had Your Fill of the Remote Islands, It's Time to Grab a Bite to Eat! After visiting the islands of Kagoshima, you'll want to try some of the delicious food and go sightseeing in the area. There's delicious Berkshire pork, Japanese black (a Japanese cattle breed), and Shochu (Japanese liquor)! In the city center, you can buy souvenirs and enjoy delicious gourmet food, including Kagoshima ramen, satsuma-age (fried fish cakes), and kibinago (Silver-stripe round herring). Kagoshima was the birthplace of Saigo Takamori, and it is also home to many famous samurai residences and more. Take a trip to the area and learn about the history of Kagoshima!

The Eruption of Shinmoedake, Mt. Kirishima Before we begin, please watch the video "The moment of a volcanic eruption! Shinmoedake “Spouting Volcanic Bombs” Kirishima Mountain Range（火山噴火の瞬間！新燃岳「噴出す火山弾」霧島連山）". This is a video of the powerful eruption of Shinmoedake, Mt. Kirishima in Kagoshima Prefecture(鹿児島県,Kagoshimaken). You can feel the fury of nature that stretches far beyond the human imagination by watching the video of the dynamic eruption. We will introduce Shinmoedake, Mt. Kirishima through the video with this article, so be sure to follow along. What Kind of Place Is Shinmoedake? Photo：Kirishima Geopark Kirishima Mountain Range is a group of volcanoes that stretches from Miyazaki Prefecture (宮崎県,Miyazakiken) to Kagoshima Prefecture in Southern Kyushu (南九州,Minami-kyushu). Shinmoedake, which is introduced in the video, is 1,421 meters above sea and is located almost halfway between Karakunidake (韓国岳,Karakunidake), the highest mountain in Mt. Kirishima, and the sacred Mount Takachiho (高千穂峰,Takachihonomine) in the east. The area surrounding the peak of Shinmoedake consists of craters and calderas, which are hollows in the ground created by volcanic activity, and it stretches over Kirishima City, Kagoshima Prefecture, while the area surrounding the ridge line stretches over Kobayashi City (小林市,Kobayashishi), Miyazaki Prefecture. As you can see in the video, volcanic activity still continues actively in Shinmoedake. The History of Volcanic Activity in Shinmoedake Photo：Shinmoedake The history of Shinmoedake’s volcanic activity is thought to stretch back about 150,000 years. Shinmoedake is a volcano that has violent eruptions called "Plinian eruptions," which produce enormous amounts of volcanic products and energy, and it has been responsible for massive disasters such as the Kyoho Eruption and the Bunsei Eruption in the Edo period (1603-1868), as well as the Showa Eruption of 1959. From existing research, we know that the volcanic eruption during the Showa period was caused by an explosion of water vapor, not magma. The Current State of Shinmoedake Source :YouTube screenshot Shinmoedake’s volcanic alert level is currently level 3 out of 5, and the damage from the falling ash is also immense. Mountaineering on the volcano is also restricted, so the effect on tourism is quite large as well. There are also volcanoes other than Shinmoedake in Kyushu such as Sakurajima (桜島,Sakurajima) and volcanic eruption alerts come frequently, so it is important to check the newest information as often as possible. This video is of Shinmoedake, Mt. Kirishima in January 2011. You can see bright red lava bursting out and rocks flying through the sky from 0:15. You can also see lightning called “volcanic thunder” flash across the rising pitch-black ashes from 1:03. Summary of the Video on Shinmoedake's Volcanic Eruption This video of the volcanic eruption that we introduced is barely 2 minutes long, yet it is a powerful piece of footage that conveys the fury of nature. The volcanic alert level of Shinmoedake, Mt. Kirishima is still extremely high and its activities are being observed carefully. If you are ever to travel close to Mt. Kirishima in Kagoshima, be careful and be prepared! 【Tripadvisor】Shinmoedake https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g1022935-d1384894-Reviews-Mt_Shinmoe-Kirishima_Kagoshima_Prefecture_Kyushu.html

You can see an artist's reconstruction of the dinosaur from 5:07 in the video. Dinosaur Fossils on Koshiki Island: Summary It is estimated that this fossil was from a dinosaur that lived close to the time of the extinction of the dinosaurs. It is thought that this fossil will become a useful resource to help us learn more about the extinction of the dinosaurs. There are still many mysteries surrounding the extinction of the dinosaurs. The continued work performed by researchers around the world is sure to uncover more information on these dinosaur fossils. In Koshiki museum's preparation room, not only can you see this ancient dinosaur fossil up close, but you also have chance to take part in many events such as a dinosaur fossil excavation tour.

Introducing Tanegashima Island, Kagoshima! This video, produced by Yomiuri Shimbun Online, is titled "Visiting History Books｜Teppoki｜Kagoshima｜Tanegashima Island." Tanegashima Island, Kagoshima Prefecture in Japan's Kyushu region (九州地方, Kyushu Chiho), introduced in this video, is known as the place where firearms were first introduced to Japan. The beginning of the video shows an aerial view of the beautiful Tanegashima Kadokura Cape, taken by drone. Enjoy the rich natural scenery and the history of firearms in Japan! Firearms on Tanegashima Island Photo：Armored warriors holding matchlock guns Tanegashima Island, Kagoshima is a spot known for being where firearms where introduced to Japan. The Portuguese, who came ashore Tanegashima Island in 1543, shared firearms, as well as manufacturing and shooting techniques. At 0:27 in the video, we see a monument that commemorates the introduction of firearms to Tanegashima Island, Kagoshima. The guns that were introduced to Tanegashima are large-barreled firearms called matchlock guns, and are also called "Tanegashima-Ju" (Tanegashima rifles). In 1549, around the same time as the introduction of the guns, Christianity was introduced to Japan by European missionaries. Where to See the History of Firearms on Tanegashima Source :YouTube screenshot Near the Tanegashima Development Center (Firearms Museum), introduced at 0:41 in the video, there is a statue of Tokitaka Tanegashima, the owner of the island who was said to be the first man who fired the firearms. Tokitaka Tanegashima is also known for achieving the domestic production of matchlock guns. Yaita Kinbei Kiyosada, shown at 1:17 in the video, is said to have duplicated the matchlocks and developed the screws necessary for firing the firearm. This made it possible to mass-produce firearms, and during the Warring States Period many warlords could get firearms at low prices. Visit Tanegashima Island!

奄美大島の伝統工芸品「本場大島紬」をご紹介！ 奄美大島を生産地とする伝統工芸品の一つである本場大島紬について「伝統工芸 青山スクエア」が公開した『手技TEWAZA「本場大島紬」Honba Oshima Tsumugi Weaving』という動画を元に、「本場大島紬」の文化や歴史を紹介させていただきます。 本場大島紬って何？ 本場大島紬とは、鹿児島県の奄美大島を発祥の地とする日本の伝統工芸品の一つである絹織物のことを指します。 日本の伝統衣装である着物の中の代表的存在で「着物の女王」とも呼ばれています。 高級絹織物とされていることから、本場大島紬を着ているだけで、知っている人には一目置かれる逸品です。 本場大島紬の始まりは7世紀頃で、文化的にも歴史的にも非常に古くから受け継がれてきています。 奄美大島には国外との交流の文化が数多く存在しますが、本場大島紬もルーツがインドにて生まれた"絣（かすり）織り"であることから、この国外の交流文化の賜物と言えます。 本場大島紬の染色方法"泥染め" 本場大島紬の製造工程で何よりも特徴的な点として挙げられるのは、染色の方法として泥染めをしていることでしょう。 この泥染めという染色方法ですが、絹糸の蚕白質の上にあるシャリンバイに含まれているタンニン酸色素と泥に含まれている鉄分が化学結合することにより、深い光沢のある味わい深い黒色を出すことが出来ます。 この自然由来の味わいが伝統工芸品たる所以であり、古くから受け継がれるべき文化だと言えます。 泥染めがどのように行われているかは動画で実際にご覧になれます。 本場大島紬のまとめ 文化的にも深い歴史を持つ伝統工芸品の本場大島紬は、今もなお奄美大島を中心に受け継がれてきています。 日本の文化とも言える伝統工芸ですが、やはり時代の流れと共に後継者が減っているのが現状です。 特殊な製造工程、細かい作業を全て手作業で行うことが主な理由とされています。 この日本の文化である伝統工芸品の一つが無くなってしまわないよう、鹿児島県としても本場大島紬織物協同組合や本場大島紬の里等の活動を盛んにされているので、今回の動画を見て興味を持った方は、ぜひ鹿児島に足を運んでみてはいかがでしょうか。
