About
Located in the southwest of Kyushu, Kagoshima Prefecture is best-known for the imposing and active Sakurajima volcano, which looms over the city of Kagoshima and continually shapes the region's environment. The prefecture is equally famous for its distinctive hot springs, particularly in Ibusuki, where visitors can experience the unique tradition of sand baths as they are buried in naturally heated volcanic sand, offering a relaxing and therapeutic experience. For food, Kagoshima offers plenty to sample but is most renowned for its trio of “black meats,” namely kurobuta (black pork), kuroushi (black beef) and kuro satsuma-dori (black chicken).
