For everyone seeking 'special experiences' on their journey,
Travel offers a special opportunity for new experiences and encounters with people, driven by the energy of history, culture, and nature inherent to that land. Travelers, through their journeys, can feel, be inspired by, and fulfill themselves with the energy of the land, using their senses, and become aware of new possibilities.
In our hometown of Kumamoto City, stands the 'renowned castle Kumamoto Castle' built by the strategist and military commander Kato Kiyomasa 400 years ago. The castle town retains a distinct Japanese culture, earning the names 'City of Forests' and 'City of Water,' boasting beautiful nature and abundant groundwater. It has been referred to as the 'Land of Fire' since ancient times, embodying strong land energy and passionate people.
Kumamoto City is truly a 'yokamachi.'
In Kumamoto, 'yoka' is a word used to mean 'good' or 'wonderful.' Additionally...
'yokanē' (That's good!), 'yokatai' (Isn't it good?), 'yokayo' (It's good.)
These positive expressions using 'yoka' are frequently used in daily life.

With that sentiment in mind, we've prepared recommended experiential services in Kumamoto City.
