A beautiful gorge in Miyazaki

Looking for scenery that's impossible to capture with a camera? Miyazaki Prefecture has a beautiful gorge named Takachiho-kyo, one of the must-go places in Kyushu. It is filled with greenery and the water has a beautiful turquoise tint.

There are also areas to eat typical Japanese food and purchase Miyazaki-specific souvenirs!

The view is ineffable. It is a place to visit, rather than a place to explain. Look out for the point in the park where you can see three bridges in one frame!
