Castle tourism in Miyazaki Prefecture

Miyazaki Prefecture is known as the hometown of mythology. Takachiho Gorge, a valley with a mystical atmosphere, is home to the legend of Amanoiwato and the descent of the descendants of the Tenson, and night Kagura still remains. Nichinan, which has a tropical resort feel, also has Udo Shrine, which is located inside a cave. Historic sites such as Nobeoka Castle, also known as the ``Ishigaki that killed a thousand people,'' Takajo, the site of the fierce battle of Mimikawa, and the Obi area, ``Little Kyoto of Kyushu,'' remain. Surrounded by the Nichinan coast and strangely shaped rocks called Oni no Washita, Aoshima is a popular spot for marine activities. There are many golf courses and night golf is also available.
