The Enchanting Beauty of Takachiho Gorge

This long-awaited trip to Japan finally brought us to the "Takachiho Gorge Boating" experience! Planning ahead, securing tickets two weeks in advance, and the anticipation the night before... But alas, the weather did not cooperate, and torrential rain greeted us early in the morning. Before leaving, half the sky was shrouded in darkness, and the rain showed no signs of stopping... As we set off, the ominous clouds lingered, and the rain continued to pour... Upon arrival, the rain took a break, and the sun peeked through... But just before boarding the boat, the weather turned on a dime, and the rain returned with a vengeance. Determined, we donned raincoats and held umbrellas, refusing to let the weather deter us from rowing. Despite the harsh conditions, soaked from head to toe, our enthusiasm remained undiminished! Though our drenched state left us feeling a bit disappointed, regretful, and unwilling to give up, We look forward to visiting again, hoping for a gentle breeze and poetic scenery to accompany us!

Takachiho Gorge

Takachiho is an absolute nature playground in Miyazaki — think dramatic gorges, crystal-clear boat rides, and mountain vibes that seriously deliver 🍃🤩. Whether you're chasing waterfalls or legends, this place has both. Must-See Takachiho Spots: Takachiho Gorge 🛶 (Mukoyama, Takachiho, Nishiusuki District, Miyazaki 882-1103; Open 08:30-17:00) — Get ready for some jaw-dropping canyon scenery! Rent a rowboat and float under volcanic cliffs, with waterfalls raining down nearby. Go early for fewer crowds and dreamy morning mist. Hiking trails along the gorge are an easy win, especially in fall when leaves are popping with color. Amaterasu Railway 🚂 — Hop on this unique local train for cute bubble shows and epic mountain views. If cloudy or rainy, don’t stress—the mist makes the scenery feel mystical! Have your camera ready for all the quick photo stops. Amanoiwato Shrine 🌄 (1073-1 Iwato, Takachiho; Open 24/7) — Legendary Japanese mythology comes to life here. Take the forest stroll down to the sacred cave and riverside; super peaceful, even when it’s busy. Eats & Practical Tips: Lunch at Amaterasu Restaurant (1082-12 Iwato, Takachiho) — Try the local chicken, and don’t skip sweet potato snacks for hiking fuel. Transport Hack: Local buses link the main sites, but taxis make the most of your time if you're short on hours. Rental scooters = next-level flexibility, especially for those cheeky views. Pack rain gear just in case — Takachiho weather loves to surprise! Cash is better for small eateries & admission spots. #TakachihoTrip #JapanNature #TravelHacks #GorgeViews #JapanFood
