[2025 Aso Attraction] Travel Guide for Mount Aso Nakadake Primary Crater (Updated Jun)

Mt. Aso crater in Kumamoto Prefecture

Exploring Kyushu's Aso Volcano feels like stepping into the heart of the magnificent earth. Standing at the edge of the crater, you witness the constant plume of smoke rising from the volcano, accompanied by the pungent scent of sulfur. The raw power of nature is utterly breathtaking. Surrounded by towering mountains, it feels like the chest of a slumbering giant, silently brimming with boundless energy. The lush green grasslands along the way contrast sharply with the desolate volcanic rock terrain, evoking a profound sense of nature's grandeur and fragility. This is a journey of dialogue with the Earth, filling your heart with reverence and emotion that lingers long after.

#Register for February Hotel Sleep Tester 2025 ### Winter beauty of Mount Aso In winter, Mount Aso is simply like entering a fairyland, covered with thick white snow. In the cold air, the white snow shines, making people feel so good. The temple on the mountain is even more antique with the snow. Sitting there quietly, people can't help but want to quietly appreciate this beauty. In the observation shop, drinking a hot drink will instantly feel much warmer, simply in a paradise on earth. While driving up the mountain, although there was snow on the road and driving carefully, every bend brought new surprises and the white scenery all around me couldn’t help myself. However, due to weather issues, the top of the volcano was not open to visit that day, and I was a little disappointed, but the snowy scenery around Mount Aso still made me unforgettable. This beautiful natural environment makes me feel a warmth in the cold. Mount Aso in winter is a memory worth collecting!
