Enjoy the spectacular mountain and sea views in Kumamoto

Kumamoto Prefecture boasts beautiful nature, including mountains and the sea. In addition to the above, there are many other tourist spots within the prefecture. However, the number of public transportation services within the prefecture is limited, so if you want to visit multiple spots, we recommend renting a car.
