Aso Highland Museum Park

A special museum with the founder/artist to give you an introduction

It was a surprise! As we are a tourist that just dropped by the place and take a look without too much expectation, the founder showed up and explained us how he started it 15 years ago...and showed ...

Blue bee.

Original Text

Blue bee was coming just when I went. It was small and moving, so it was difficult for amateurs to take good pictures. But I didn't know there was such a bee and it was very beautiful.

I don't think there's much on display.

Original Text

I intended to come to see the paintings, but the number of exhibits was small and I couldn't feel the meaning of seeing them here. However, I enjoyed the scenery as it was.

There is a charge for painting exhibitions and garden walks.

Original Text

It is an adult １ person ４５０ yen. You can walk through the exhibition of paintings and the garden. The garden is well maintained and the world of picture books matches the grassland, so if the weather is good, it will be a pleasant walk. There is also a space where you can buy picture books and goods, which is free of charge.

Meet the Prince of the Stars and play in the magnificent South Aso

Original Text

I traveled to Golden Week to support the Kumamoto and Oita earthquake. Minami Aso still has a divided prefectural road and cannot go straight to the accommodation. You can meet the prince of the stars at the Hashomei Museum. And when you go outside from the back of the museum, you will see the magnificent scenery of Minami Aso drawn by Yoshiaki Ha. That's all, but it feels very good surrounded by nature. I recommend going on a sunny day.
