It looked new! The big car parking in front of the shops and it was easy to park. They sold fresh local food and all sorts of stuff. There were doctor fish available in the store. The restaurant was next to the shop. There was a beach in front of the shop for a walk and we saw the Sakurajima out there. A nice place to refresh.

Pretty empty on a Wednesday evening. I was considering some noodles for dinner when a worker seemingly read my mind and told me I could sit over at the tables (secluded and kind of out of sight) and eat. Well thank you super friendly Kagoshima person. Rained like crazy as I left the store, added nicely to my meal.

(Translated by Google) At a still new roadside station lunch I got curry!! ️ Souvenirs, vegetables, and many other things are sold❗In front of you, you can relax in the sea or outside 😃 (Original) まだ新しい道の駅で お昼ごはん カレーを頂きました‼️ お土産や野菜、いろんなものが売られています❗目の前は海で外でもゆっくりできそうです😃

(Translated by Google) I think it's a beautiful and easy-to-use roadside station. The parking lot is large and easy to park, and the restrooms are clean. I was confused because there were so many souvenirs. At the restaurant, you can enjoy delicious and enjoyable meals. Especially female clerks who have immigrated from far away. She was great at her job and had a great smile. It's a place where I feel glad I came. (Original) 綺麗で使いやすい道の駅だと思います。 駐車場も広くて停めやすいし、トイレ🚾もキレイです。 お土産もたくさんあるので迷いました。 レストランでは、美味しく楽しく食事ができます。特に遠方から移住された女性の店員さん 仕事ができて笑顔がステキでした。来て良かったなと思えるところです。

good

(Translated by Google) After driving all the way from Kagoshima City on National Route 220, I was getting pretty bored, so I stopped at a roadside station that was perfect for a break. The vegetables were surprisingly cheap, fresh, and had a neighborhood atmosphere. Pumice pots from Sakurajima make good and inexpensive souvenirs. (Original) 国道220号を鹿児島市からずっと走ってくるとかなり飽きてくるので休憩にぴったりの道の駅に寄る。 野菜が意外に安くて新鮮でご近所の雰囲気を感じられた。桜島の軽石の鉢は安くて良い土産になる

(Translated by Google) It appears when you drive along National Route 220 from the center of Tarumi towards Kanoya. The parking lot is spacious and has an open feel. It's a relatively new facility so it's clean. There is also plenty of sales space. The west side faces Kinko Bay and offers views of both Sakurajima and Mt. Kaimondake, making it a great value. (Original) 垂水の中心部から鹿屋のほうへ国道220号線を走っていくと現れる。やたらと駐車場が広く開放感がある。割と新しめの施設なので綺麗。販売スペースも充実している。西側は錦江湾に面し桜島と開聞岳の双方を望めるのでとてもお得。

(Translated by Google) Is it really a roadside station? The parking lot is so vast that I thought. Apparently, the parking lot is surrounded by a hotel, restaurants, and convenience stores, and is built like a shopping mall. From the observation deck on the second floor of the roadside station, you can see Mt. Kaimondake on the left and Sakurajima on the right, facing Kinko Bay in front of you, making it a great location! You can also enjoy delicious seafood and black pork dishes. I would like you to stop by once when sightseeing in Kagoshima. (Original) 本当に道の駅？って思うくらい駐車場が広大。どうやら駐車場を囲んでホテル、飲食店、コンビニと共用にしてショッピングモールのような造りになってる。道の駅の2階展望デッキからは目の前の錦江湾に向かって左手に開聞岳、右手に桜島が見えロケーションが素晴らしい！美味しい海鮮料理と黒豚料理も食べることが出来ます。鹿児島観光の際は一度寄ってみて欲しいです。

(Translated by Google) Visited on weekdays in September 2023. If you come to Tarumi, you'll definitely want yellowtail! So, I headed to this roadside station. The yellowtail in the yellowtail bowl was surprisingly soft, unlike anything I've ever eaten before! Was yellowtail this soft? lol The pork cutlet set my family ordered from Sakurajima Miyubuta was juicy, soft and delicious♡ The fluffy soft serve ice cream I found in the cafe corner one time melted really quickly, so I don't really recommend it. (Original) 2023年9月平日訪問。 垂水に来たらやっぱりブリだよね！ ってことで、こちらの道の駅へ。 ブリ丼のブリは食べたことない柔らかさでびっくり！ ブリってこんなに柔らかかったの？笑 家族が注文した｢桜島美湯豚｣のとんかつ御膳も、豚がジューシーでやわらかくおいしい♡ 1回のカフェコーナーにあった、もこもこソフトは、何かめちゃくちゃ溶けるの早くて、あんまりオススメしません😅

(Translated by Google) It has a lot of facilities and I think it's a place where you can relax and enjoy it if you have time. The facility is still new and clean. The parking lot was spacious and I was able to park slowly. Today I stopped by for a restroom break and to get some stamps. (Original) 色んな施設が併設されていて時間があればゆっくり楽しめる場所と思います。 施設はまだまだ新しく綺麗です。 駐車場も広々としてゆっくり止めることができました。 本日はトイレ休憩とスタンプの捺印で立ち寄らせて頂きました

(Translated by Google) You can park, but it's narrow. There is a small shrine at the bottom of the stairs, and Kannon is said to be enshrined inside, but it was covered with cloth so I couldn't see it. Hidden Buddha? It was well maintained and seemed loved by the locals. You can see Sakurajima from further down from there, but there are a lot of trees and it's hard to see. If you want to see Sakurajima from this side, Roadside Station Tarumizu might be better. (Original) 駐車はできますが狭いです。 階段を降りたところに小さな祠があり、その中に観音様が祀られているそうですが布で覆われてそれを見ることは叶いませんでした。秘仏？お手入れはきちんとされており地元の方から愛されてる感じがしました。 そこからさらに降りた所から桜島が望めますが少々木が繁って見づらい感じが。こちら側から桜島が見たいなら道の駅たるみずの方がいいかも。

(Translated by Google) Didn’t have time to watch the sunset~ But you can come and check in!! Because the scenery is beautiful~ (Original) 沒來得及看日落~ 但可以來打個卡!! 因為風景很美~

(Translated by Google) There is a parking space on a curve along National Route 220 facing the sea, and at the back there is a shrine dedicated to Kannon. It is said that a stone shrine on top of a rocky place is also depicted in the ``Sangoku Meisho Zue,'' which was written in the Edo period and described famous places in Satsuma, Osumi, and Hyuga. When I got down to the rocky area, I was able to see the calm Kinko Bay and Sakurajima. (Original) 国道220号沿いの海に面したカーブになった場所に駐車スペースがあり、その奥に観音様を祀る祠があります。 江戸時代に薩摩・大隅・日向の名所を記した「三國名勝図会」にも岩場の上の石祠が描かれているそうです。 岩場に降りると穏やかな錦江湾と桜島を眺めることができました。

(Translated by Google) I don't think it's a very special attraction. You can see Sakurajima clearly, but the parking lot is so small that there is no need to stop by. Although the viewing angle changes, I think it would be better to enjoy Sakurajima while relaxing in the footbath at the roadside station Tarumizu. (Original) あまり特別な見どころとは思えない。桜島が良く見えますが、駐車場も狭くわざわざ立ち寄るまでもないようです。見る角度は変わるが道の駅たるみずでゆっくりと足湯に浸かりながら桜島を堪能した方がいいかな。

(Translated by Google) I visited there thinking I could get a good view of Sakurajima, but... It was a very small place. There is a parking lot. This is not a place you go to as a tourist just to see Sakurajima. It is a place of worship for local people. There is a roadside station with a good view ahead, so the view from there was enough. (Original) 桜島がよく見れるかと思い訪問してみましたが… とても小さい場所でした。 駐車場はあります。 わざわざ桜島を見るために観光で訪れる場所ではない。 地元の人の参拝所です。 その先に見晴らしのいい道の駅があるのでそこから見る景色で十分でした。

(Translated by Google) If you go down the stone steps from the national highway and look towards the sea, you can see a spectacular view of Sakurajima! ️ Also, many people who wish for a safe delivery and those involved in the fishing industry come here 🙌 (Original) 国道から石段を下り、海側に目を向けると桜島の絶景が一望出来ます‼️また、安産を願う人々や漁業関係者なども多く訪れるそうです🙌

(Translated by Google) This place is a sacred place in a sense😁 (Original) この場所はある意味で聖地です😁

(Translated by Google) You can see the back side of Sakurajima that you often see. On a clear day, the view is spectacular. We recommend visiting Sakurajima on a motorcycle and taking the course that takes you around the island. (Original) よく見る桜島の裏側が見れます。天気の良い日は、とても絶景です。バイクで訪れ、桜島に渡り島を1周するコースは、オススメです。

(Translated by Google) If you go towards Ushine from Tarumi City, there is a parking lot on the left side of the entrance of Ushine Ohashi Bridge where you can see the spectacular view from the observation deck. There is only space for 5 to 6 regular cars, but it is a famous tourist spot 🙌 Please stop by and enjoy the spectacular view 🙇💯 (Original) 垂水市から牛根方向に行きますと、牛根大橋の入口の左側に展望台から絶景を見る為の駐車場があります。普通車5～6台のスペースしかありませんが、観光スポットとして有名な所です🙌是非お立ち寄りして絶景を楽しんでください🙇💯

(Translated by Google) There are 5 parking spaces in front of the bridge. The view is not that good. (Original) 橋の手前に駐車スペースが5台分あります。 眺望はそこまで良くありません。

(Translated by Google) I came to Sakurajima. ٩(^‿^)۶ Entrance to Sakurajima‥Take a break at Ushikonohashi Bridge! (Original) 桜島にやって参りました。 ٩(^‿^)۶ 桜島の入口‥牛根大橋で一休み！

(Translated by Google) The gateway to the volcanic island of Sakurajima. A small but beautiful bridge welcomes you~~ (Original) 사쿠라지마 화산섬으로 들어가는 관문. 작지만 멋있는 다리가 반겨줍니다~~

(Translated by Google) The view is nice and you should try going on a bike tour. (Original) 眺めが良く、バイクツーリングで行ってみるべきですね

(Translated by Google) The design of the balanced-arch white Ushikon Ohashi Bridge fits perfectly with this landscape, and the view of the sea toward Ukitsu Minato from the center of the bridge is also wonderful as you walk from the observatory. I visited when the weather was nice and there was no backlight, and I thought the best result was when I took a photo of Sakurajima with Ushine Ohashi Bridge 👍 (Original) バランスドアーチ式の白い牛根大橋は、デザインもこの景観にぴったり合っていて、展望台から歩いて中央から眺める浮津湊方向の海の景色も素晴らしいです✨ 天気のいい逆光じゃないタイミングに訪れて、牛根大橋と一緒に桜島を撮影したら最強の出来映えだと思いました👍

(Translated by Google) Connecting Sakurajima, Kagoshima City and Ushikonoroku, Tarumi City, It's a great place to see Ushikonohashi Bridge, Sakurajima, and Kinko Bay. (Original) 鹿児島市桜島と垂水市牛根麓を結ぶ、 牛根大橋と桜島と錦江湾を見られ、眺め良い場所です。

紅葉の時期にはまだ早かったみたいです。 でもどんくりがたくさん落ちていました! 再来週くらいが色付くかもですね。 (Translated by Google) It seems that it was still early for the autumn leaves season. But a lot of acorns were falling! Maybe the next week or so will bring more color.

2022.12.2 駐車場は平日午後2時過ぎに到着し、第一駐車場に少し並んで入れました。垂水市内から登って行った場合、駐車場に入るのが反対車線からになるので、少し先の方の路肩が広い場所でUターンして来てから並びました。警備員が駐車場では誘導します。 NHKニュースでは見頃になっていましたが、だいぶ落葉しておりスカスカで、写真で見るような風景は見られず残念でした。下の方の枝は切られているのも多いように見えました。 また、枝の上の方はまだ青葉のまま枯れ始めているのもあり、今年はイマイチなのかな⁇ という感じ。 駐車場向かい側Cブロックの128階段を登って癒しの丘と幸せベンチに行き、次に第一駐車場から下ったBブロックを見て、最後に第一駐車場から奥の小道に入るAブロックの順で写真を撮りながらゆっくり回り、1時間弱でした。 ライトアップされるAブロックの通路は、ほとんど落葉しているので残念な風景になりそうです。 これが個人の私有地で、お二人で植えられたのは驚きでした。しかも駐車場、臨時トイレまで使えて無料とはありがたい事です。 案内板ご挨拶には、世間自然遺産、僕立公園と書かれていました。 (Translated by Google) 2022.12.2 I arrived at the parking lot after 2:00 pm on a weekday and entered the first parking lot in a short line. If you climb up from Tarumizu city, you will have to enter the parking lot from the opposite lane, so I made a U-turn at a place with a wide shoulder a little ahead and lined up. A security guard will guide you in the parking lot. It was the best time to see it on the NHK news, but it was a pity that I could not see the scenery like the one in the picture because the leaves had fallen and it was empty. Many of the lower branches appeared to have been cut. In addition, the upper part of the branch is still green and has begun to wither, so I wonder if this year is not good? That's what it feels like. Climb the 128 stairs in block C opposite the parking lot to get to the healing hill and happy bench, then look at block B from the first parking lot, and finally enter the back path from the first parking lot to block A It took less than an hour, taking pictures in order. The lighted-up A block passage is mostly fallen leaves, so it looks like it will be a disappointing scenery. It was a surprise to me that this was private land and that the two of you planted it together. Moreover, it is a blessing that you can use the parking lot and the temporary toilet for free. In the greetings on the information board, it was written as a world natural heritage, a private park.

The best view of Autumn season 🍂

シーズンオフの２月の平日に訪問しましたが、その時は誰もいませんでした。 普段は散歩コースなので夕方に来られるかたがいらっしゃるでしょう。 駐車場は写真の通り広いものの、シーズンになれば満杯になるような気がします。 駐車場反対側の幸せの丘は、傾斜が急な階段を登ります。 登りきって見た丘は、おか？確かにおかだけども、って感じの丘でした。 眺めは良いです。ひとつベンチもありますが、丘の広さが・・・・ (Translated by Google) I visited on a weekday in February during the off-season, and there was no one there at that time. Since it is usually a walking course, some people may come in the evening. The parking lot is large as shown in the photo, but it seems to be full during the season. The hill of happiness on the opposite side of the parking lot is up a steep staircase. Was the hill I saw after climbing it? It was definitely a hill, but it felt like a hill. The view is good. There is one bench, but the size of the hill is...

(Translated by Google) I went on November 26th, and it was very crowded, probably because it was a Sunday. There are many tourists from overseas! The parking lot was full and the second parking lot, which is about 2km away, was also full, but it was easy because we had a free shuttle bus to pick us up. The ginkgo leaves were about 90% autumn! Early December is thought to be the best time❗Thank you very much to Tarumi Tourism Association for your consideration👏 (Original) 11月26日に行きましたが、日曜日だったのか大変な混雑でした。海外からの観光客も多数！駐車場がいっぱいで2キロ位の第2駐車場も満杯状態でしたが、無料のシャトルバスで送迎してもらえるので、楽でした。イチョウ葉は9割位の紅葉でした！12月初旬が最高だと思われます❗垂水観光協会様の心遣い有り難うございます👏

(Translated by Google) When I visited during the daytime on November 23rd, it was quite a sight to see and it had changed color quite a bit. Motorcycles seem to be able to go directly to Parking Lot 1, but cars can be parked at Temporary Parking Lot 3 and taken by a free shuttle bus from there. You may have to walk up steep slopes in the park, so it's best to wear clothes that are easy to move in. (Original) １１月２３日の昼間に訪問したところ、だいぶ色づいており十分見ごたえがありました。 バイクは第１駐車場まで直接行けたようですが、車は第３臨時駐車場に車を停め、そこから無料のシャトルバスで送ってもらうようになっています。 園内は急な坂道を歩くこともありますので、動きやすい服装にした方が良いです。

(Translated by Google) A place I've always wanted to visit. It was my first time visiting. There are so many cars that a security guard guides you through the parking lot at night. After walking uphill for another 10 minutes, we arrived at Senbon Ginkgo. There were so many visitors that Ginkgo Street had the atmosphere of a crowded shrine during New Year's visit. The main illumination of the ginkgo trees was very beautiful and soothing. Recommended. (Original) 以前から足を運びたいと思ってた場所。初めて訪れました。車がとても多くて夜間の駐車場は警備員が誘導対応。さらに10分程登り坂を歩いたら千本イチョウに到着。来訪者が多くてイチョウの通りは初詣の時の神社の人混みのような雰囲気でしたね。メインのライトアップのイチョウの景観はとっても綺麗で心癒やされました。オススメです。

(Translated by Google) Arriving on a trip to Shikajima Island, Gokou is the prize of Tarumi Senbon Ginkgo, where is the trip to the area? Time, the actual timing, the relative height of the tree, the tree's lower leaf drop, the position at the top of the tree where golden and yellow leaves are concentrated, the phase that needs to be taken out, and the possible demand for flowers. Tarumi's thousand ginkgo trees are not abundant in the area, and since then it has been relatively good for at least 1-2 hours. Our cars are parked inside the first parking lot, and if you visit on weekdays, there are about 20 stops left and right. A certain time has arrived at the star stage, and the yellow leaf meeting is completed! When I came to Kagoshima, it happened to be the day to see Tarumi Senbon, so I included it in my itinerary, but it happened to be the time when I could see the yellow leaves for the past few days, so when I actually went there, I found a few. Because the trees are relatively tall, the roots of the trees have already shed their leaves, and the golden leaves are concentrated at the tops of the trees, so it may take some time to take a good photo. Tarumi Senbon is large, so it's best to spend at least 1 to 2 hours there, but the temperature is low on the mountain, so you'll need to wear warm clothing. We parked our car in the first parking lot, and although we visited on a weekday, there were about 20 parking spaces. The autumn leaves may be even more beautiful if you visit a week early! (Original) 來到鹿兒島旅遊，剛好是欣賞垂水千本イチョウ的日子，所以在行程安排了這個地方，剛好這幾天是黃葉見頃的 時間，實際去到的時候，有些樹比較高，樹的下方已落葉了，金黃色的葉子集中在樹頂位置，要拍出好看的相片，可能需要花點時間。 垂水千本イチョウ佔地不少，所以得最少1-2小時比較好，山上的氣溫底，所以也得注意保暖。 我們車停在第一註車場內，到訪的是平日日子，停車位大約20個左右。 或許早一個星期到訪，黃葉會更美呢！ 鹿児島に来たとき、たまたま垂水千本を鑑賞する日だったので、ここを旅程に組み込んだのですが、たまたまここ数日で黄葉が見られる時期だったので、実際に行ってみると、いくつかの木々が比較的背が高く、木の根元はすでに落葉しており、黄金色の葉が木のてっぺんに集中しているため、きれいな写真を撮るには時間がかかるかもしれません。 垂水千本は広いので最低でも1～2時間はいたほうが良いですが、山の上は気温が低いので防寒が必要です。 私たちの車は第一駐車場に停めましたが、平日の訪問でしたが、20台ほどの駐車スペースがありました。 1週間早めに訪れるとさらに紅葉が綺麗になるかも！

(Translated by Google) I visited on December 3rd. Since it was around the last day of the best viewing season, it was crowded. There were security guards and there was a free shuttle bar, but we were directed to the upper parking lot because we couldn't bring our pets with us. Once you get off the shuttle bus, walk a little. The area is also divided into ABC, and there were some areas where the leaves were a little greener. When heading to the ginkgo garden, I can see a yellow lump on the mountain side, so is it easy to find the direction? I often met people with pets at the right time. I went with my daughter, and since it had been busy lately, we were able to have a nice relaxing time while feeling the season. I wanted to go there again. (Original) 12月3日訪れました。 見頃の最終日辺りということもあり、混んでました。 警備員の方もおり無料シャトルバルもありましたが、ペット同伴では乗れない為上の方の駐車場を案内されました。 シャトルバス降りると少し歩きます。 エリアもABCと分かれておりエリアに寄っては多少葉が緑っぽいところもありました。 イチョウ園に向かう時　山手の方に黄色いかたまりが見えるので方向的にはわかりやすいですか。 ペットを連れている方もタイミングでよく会いました。 娘と行きましたが、最近忙しいかったので季節を感じつつ良い癒しの時間を過ごすことができました。 また行きたいなぁーと思いました。

(Translated by Google) I visited in late November. The parking lot isn't that big, but the security guys organized it quickly and I was able to park without any problems. The ginkgo garden here is divided into three routes. Personally, I recommend the route opposite the parking lot as it offers a great view! (However, there are some steep slopes or stairs, so be careful if you have weak legs or wear heels) The over 1,000 ginkgo trees were a sight to behold. It's lit up at night, so you can enjoy a different atmosphere. (Original) 11月下旬に訪問しました。 駐車場はそこまで広くないですが、警備のおじさま方がピピッと整理してくれて、問題なく停めることができました。 ここのイチョウ園は3つのルートに分かれています。 個人的には駐車場の向かい側のルートが眺めもよくオススメです！ (ただしやや急な坂道or階段があるので、足腰弱い方やヒールの方は注意) 1000本を越えるイチョウは圧巻でした。 夜はライトアップもされてるので、また違った雰囲気を楽しめそうです。

(Translated by Google) One of Kagoshima Prefecture's autumn traditions. I came to see the fresh green leaves. The entrance is a narrow and deep tree-lined street. It seems that it is not a wild tree but a planted tree. There were wild animals such as raccoon dogs nearby. (Original) 鹿児島県の秋の風物詩の一つ。新緑だが来てみました。入口あり間口狭く奥行きある並木道です。自生しているのでなく植樹したものと思われます。近くではタヌキなどの野生動物いました。
