From Kitakyushu Airport to Yamaguchi by rental car
In mid-December, on the website of Kitakyushu Airport in Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka Prefecture, "Kitakyushu Airport Staff Goes! Travel Experiences "Yamaguchi Version"" was published on the website of Kitakyushu Airport in Kitakyushu City, Fukuoka.
It takes about 1 hour and 50 minutes to get to Nagato City by rental car from the airport, which also operates international flights to Korea and Taiwan.
In early December, two staff members actually visited Nagato City with the image of inbound (foreign tourists) in mind.
Touring the spectacular scenery by the sea
After passing through Karato Market and Kakushima Island in Shimonoseki City, the two arrived at the "Home of the Yangtze River" in Aburaya, Nagato City, and Motonosumi Shrine.
After passing through 123 torii gates, visitors are challenged to make a monetary donation at the top of the Otorii gate.
We stop many times to snap the shutter and enjoy the spectacular view by the ocean.
After the visit to the shrine, it took about 40 minutes to run with a view of the ocean.
The next stop was the "Qinghai Island Nature Study Path," a spot where visitors can view a group of oddly shaped rocks known as the Maritime Alps.
The works of art created by nature can be viewed not only from above, but also down on the beach.
The sun's rays, which were beginning to tilt, illuminated the rocks like a spotlight, and the hand holding the camera became more powerful.
Surrounded by nature, the quiet space was filled only with the sound of lapping waves.
Enjoy Roadside Station Senza Kitchen
Returning to Senzaki from Omishima Island, the two went to "Michi no Eki Senza Kitchen" where they were bathed in a peaceful sunset.
Choose a souvenir of your trip at this place where the "delicacies" of Nagato City are gathered.
At the adjacent "Nagato Toy Museum of Art," go to the "Wooden Egg Pool," which is popular among visitors.
Both adults and children will want to hold it, and it is gentle to the touch. The fragrance of the wood will help you to heal.
We also visited the Benten, a kids' cruise ship where they can interact with wooden toys at sea.
At this time, from the seaside deck at the back of the direct sales area, you can also enjoy the gradation of blue and orange that colors the sky.
After dark, we stayed overnight at a ryokan in Nagato Yumoto Onsen.
The next day, they visited the castle town and Kasayama in Hagi City, Akiyoshidai and Shuho-do in Mine City, and Ruriko-ji in Yamaguchi City.
The 2-day/1-night trip to/from Kitakyushu Airport is introduced on the "Kitakyushu Airport Staff Goes to Yamaguchi" page of the Kitakyushu Airport website! Travel Experiences in Yamaguchi" on the Kitakyushu Airport website. Please take a look at this report from a traveler's point of view.
