Mt. Aso: The Breathing Earth

The grandeur that reminds us how small we truly are... 🌍 Before us stands Mt. Aso, a volcano that constantly roars and emits faint smoke, contrasting beautifully with the serene, lush green expanse of the Kusasenri grasslands stretching as far as the eye can see. 🍃 It’s an incredible harmony between the destructive power and the gentle side of nature. Standing here, gazing at this view, feels like time has stopped. Let your mind drift with the breeze and take in the 360-degree panoramic scenery. This is truly a way to recharge with nature! ❗️For this trip, we drove from Kumamoto City for the second time. On our first attempt, we were unlucky as the weather was bad, with heavy fog obscuring everything. So, we decided to make the drive again the next day to capture the view you see here. It was absolutely worth it. Even the journey itself was rewarding. If you plan to visit, it’s a good idea to check the weather conditions beforehand. But trust me, it’s worth it and a must-visit destination.
