Kagoshima

Kagoshima is the capital of Kagoshima prefecture on the island of Kyushu, Japan. Kagoshima is a historical city watched over by the looming bulk of Sakurajima, an active volcano that regularly dumps ash over the city and erupts a bit every now and then to remind people it's still there.

Kagoshima Travel Tips
Kagoshima travel tips courtesy of GeckoGo
  • Although Kagoshima is an absolutely wonderful place, do try to avoid going there in July or August. They have a horrible combination of heat and humidity there. If you do go during that time, bring a little portable electric fan. Take it with you always. • Samantha D.
  • Make sure to take a trip to Sakurajima! • Anne L.
  • Ile de Kyushu au sud du Japon, région volcanique • Stéphane D.
