Kiyomizudera
Kiyomizu-dera Temple is a Tiantai ancestral temple in Miyama City, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. Legend has it that Kiyomizu Temple was founded during the Heian period by Saichō, who came to China in 804 and 805, mastered Tendai Buddhism, and returned to Japan in 806. After returning to Japan, he was taken to Kiyomizu-dera by a bird and found the Nim tree on the mountain. He cut them out and created a pair of Kannon Bodhisattva statues, which he enshrined at Kiyomizu Temple in Kyoto.Miyama · 10.1 km from Nankan

Yanagawa
Yanagawa, known as the world's water town, is an artificial river surrounded by the city. It is criss-crossed in Yanagawa City, with a total distance of 930 kilometers. This man-made river was originally used as a fortress, but also has various functions such as a disaster prevention function such as temporarily storing excess rainwater to prevent flooding of the river, and a water storage function such as water for agriculture and firefighting. Very beneficial to the public. The water there is very shallow, and the depth is not more than one meter. The boat sails down into the wind. Along the way, there are ancient Japanese houses, willows, and spring flowers. The boatman wearing Japanese clothes sings ancient songs in a unique cadence. At this time, if you have a glass of sake in your hand to drink, how comfortable it should be.Yanagawa · 16.9 km from Nankan

This is the largest amusement park in Kyushu, with many rides and attractions. Because it's so big, you don't have to wait long even on Sundays. I rode more than ten different roller coasters and was very satisfied. There are also many food options and Kumamoto-themed souvenirs in the park at reasonable prices, and you can also dine outside the park.

Kumamoto Castle is full of ingenuity. In my mind, the castle ruins are truly magnificent.
Most astonishing are the piles of stones beneath the walls. They were rolled down during the Kumamoto earthquake. While progress is slow, they will one day be rebuilt.

Take a boat in Yanagawa
Take off your shoes when you take the boat, there is a kotatsu under your feet
The boatman sings while rowing, it's so pleasant
The water level is too low, otherwise I heard that you can perform boat jumping😂
After 30 minutes, Kama couldn't get up
But it's really beautiful here, I love Japan in winter

If you have time, you should stop by. It's very beautiful. It's suitable for taking adults to see and take pictures.
There are few people. You can feed the fish and birds. The owner is very kind.
The weather is very good.

As a waitress who is working in the fast pace environment, I would really like to stay in Yanagawa for a few days. This is a town which makes my mind relax, quiet and peaceful. Hope to come here again in the future.
