Discover the Undiscovered: Why You Should Travel to Kyushu, Japan with Exotik Journeys
When most travellers think of Japan, Tokyo’s neon lights, Kyoto’s temples, and Hiroshima’s history often come to mind. But just beyond the familiar lies Kyushu—a hidden gem, Japan’s third-largest island, offering dramatic landscapes, rich history, and unique cultural experiences that few tourists explore. With Exotik Journeys’ Kyushu: The Southern Route – 20 Days/19 Nights, you can uncover this captivating region in comfort, style, and with unmatched local insight.
From Iconic Cities to Hidden Wonders
Your adventure begins in the bustling capitals of Tokyo and Kyoto. Wander through dazzling cityscapes, soak in centuries-old temples, and stroll the charming districts where tradition meets modernity. A visit to Miyajima—the serene shrine island—offers a moment of reflection, while Hiroshima reminds travelers of the resilience and hope woven into Japan’s history.
Then, it’s time to venture south, to the less-travelled island of Kyushu. This region is a mosaic of history, nature, and vibrant culture. Explore Fukuoka, a lively port city blending contemporary urban life with local cuisine and street festivals. In Nagasaki, witness a multicultural history shaped by centuries of international trade, and in Kumamoto, step back into Japan’s samurai era with its majestic castle and traditional streets.
Kyushu is also a haven for nature lovers. Soak in the therapeutic hot springs of Beppu and Yufuin, wander Edo-style streets in Hita, and marvel at the volcanic power of Mount Aso and Sakurajima. This journey combines Japan’s modern energy with untouched landscapes, offering experiences that are as diverse as they are memorable. The adventure culminates with an overnight ferry to Osaka, a city where cutting-edge innovation meets historic charm.
