On this day trip from Fukuoka, you'll see several sacred shrines. You'll start at the lantern-lit Shimo-Semenomikoto Shrine in Aso, Kumamoto. This fantasy-inspired shrine is famous for its Tenburen Rock, and visitors gather here to absorb the natural energy of the rock and pay homage to the sacred Nagi tree. From here, you'll head to Tenyuanawara in Miyazaki, home to the Amanoiwato Shrine which is known for its rock-stacking rituals and a beacon for spiritual healing and good fortune. Next will be the ancient volcanic Takachiho Gorge, where you'll find the serene Nomi Waterfall. You can wander along the promenade and see the historical bridges that span across the gorge. The final highlights of the tour are the Rock of Onis Strength and the majestic Byosen no Byoubu Iwa.
