The record of my trip to the Amami Archipelago in late March 2024 will now be published in several parts. The first article is a record of my stay on Amami Oshima and in Naze, Amami City.
Amami Oshima, which belongs to Kagoshima Prefecture, is the second largest of the outlying islands in Japan after Sado Island. It has a population of approximately 57,000. The northern part of the island is mostly flat farmland and sugar cane cultivation, while the southern part is mostly mountainous and is home to endangered endemic species such as the Amami rabbit (a special protected species), the Lidth's jay (a protected species) and the giant tiger thrush (a species of thrush).
On this trip, we landed at Amami Airport by plane from Kagoshima Airport. This report describes the views from the Ogamiyama Observatory, which offers a panoramic view of Naze, the largest city on Amami Oshima, and visits to Asani Beach, not far from the city centre, and Akaogi Beach in the north-east of Amami Oshima. The town of Nase is one of the largest cities on a remote island far from the mainland, and we had little trouble finding food and shopping during our stay.
My first trip to a subtropical island was one of the best trips I have personally taken.
From the next issue onwards, we plan to publish a report on our visit to Koniya, the second largest city on Amami Oshima, whose nostalgic atmosphere stirs up travel memories, and the islands around Amami Oshima.
We travel around the country, focusing on remote islands, mountain villages and old townscapes, and make videos of them. We would be very encouraged if you would subscribe to our channel and give us a high rating.
Let's travel together to the 'unknown Japan'.
