Nature's Splendor: Kusasenrigahama ("thousand miles of grass") @ Aso Volcano
#japantrip#familytrip #aso #Kusasenrigahama #volcano
Our family journey to Kusasenrigahama near the majestic Aso Volcano was a delightful escape into the heart of natural beauty. The expansive grasslands, set against the dramatic backdrop of the volcano, offered a serene and captivating setting for our family to explore. One of the most magical encounters we had was stumbling upon the free-range horses that roamed peacefully through the meadows, adding an extra touch of charm to the already picturesque landscape.
I highly recommend a visit to Kusasenrigahama for families seeking a peaceful retreat amidst nature's wonders. The tranquil atmosphere and stunning views make it a perfect destination for both relaxation and exploration. Renting a car and driving from Fukuoka to Aso was a pleasant and enjoyable experience, taking approximately 2 to 3 hours. The scenic drive allowed us to soak in the beauty of the countryside and create unforgettable memories along the way.
The scenic drive from Fukuoka to Aso offers a glimpse of Japan's countryside and is perfect for families looking to bond and explore together. Kusasenrigahama's natural beauty and the proximity to Aso Volcano make it a must-visit destination for families seeking a tranquil retreat amidst Japan's stunning landscapes.

Aso Hanabishi, a place for lean red beef
A very traditional old style restaurant located very close to Aso Shrine at Monzenmachi Shopping Street in Aso City. They serve many signature dishes including dishes made with Akaushi beef - very lean, less oily and healthy. I have too much of Bungo beef in Oita therefore akaushi beef suits my appetite perfectly!
We tried both traditional beef rice with onsen egg, and beef cutlet rice sets, both are highly recommended!!
