basic information

Sakurajima

Kagoshima is Kyushu's southernmost, major city and the capital of Kagoshima Prefecture. The city is often compared with its Italian sister city Naples due to a similarly mild climate, palm tree lined streets, relatively hot tempered inhabitants and Sakurajima, Kagoshima's Vesuvius.

Attractions
Sakurajima (1) Active volcano in the bay off Kagoshima.
Senganen Garden (3) Japanese style landscape garden.
Saigo Takamori Statue (2) Statue of Saigo Takamori, the local hero.
