Miyazaki City Phoenix Zoo
A leisure spot where you can enjoy animal viewing and attractions in a tropical setting. It is also known as Japan’s first “ecological zoo,” featuring mixed-species exhibits. The Approx. 150,000-square-meter grounds overlook the Pacific Ocean and are lined with palm trees, creating an open, Miyazaki-style atmosphere. The zoo is home to Approx. 900 animals from 80 species, including Asian elephants, flamingos, and red pandas.
來到 宮崎市鳳凰自然動物園，原本很期待可以搭遊園設施、看看可愛動物，再悠閒逛完整個園區。
結果天公不作美，一整天都在下雨，許多戶外設施沒辦法體驗，只能撐著傘慢慢散步。不過也因為雨天，園區遊客很少，逛起來格外舒服，動物們也有不同於晴天的模樣。
旅行就是這樣，不一定每次都完美，但每一趟都會留下屬於自己的回憶。希望下次有機會，再來把這裡玩個徹底。 -

Miyazaki Jingu Shrine
This shrine is the crown jewel of Miyazaki, and it worships the first Emperor Jimmu. Alongside the emperor, his parents, the god Ugayafuki-Aezu-no-Mikoto, and goddess Tamayorimi-Himenokoto is worshiped. Visitors pray to the altars in hope for being successful in education, business, and maternity. The festivals in October is dubbed “Jimmu-sama”, and is attended by many.
Miyazaki Jingu Shrine is one of Miyazaki's most iconic shrines. It enshrines Emperor Jimmu, Japan's first emperor, and the Grand Festival held every October is an important local event.
We visited on a weekday, and there really weren't many people. As soon as we entered the shrine grounds, everything became quiet. The tall trees, wide approach, and pleasant surroundings naturally made us slow down and quietly take in this rare sense of tranquility.
It isn't the kind of flashy, eye-catching attraction, but it's a good place to stop by while you're in the area, take a walk, snap some photos, and enjoy a relaxing trip without the crowds. -

Sengan-en
Sengan-en is a Japanese garden made for the Shimadzu family estate by Mitsuhisa Shimadzu in 1658. The grounds boast a sprawling 50,000 square meters in total. The garden itself uses the “borrowed scenery” technique, incorporating Kagoshima’s coveted spots like the volcano Sakurajima and Kinko Bay as a natural backdrop.
When visiting Kagoshima, you shouldn't miss Sengan-en.
This Japanese garden, with more than 300 years of history, makes Sakurajima and Kinko Bay part of the garden itself. I really admire the ingenuity of the people who created it. As you stroll through the grounds, the scenery constantly changes with every step, and every angle looks like a postcard.
There aren't many visitors on weekdays, so you can take a leisurely walk, take photos, and quietly appreciate this garden that blends nature and history through borrowed scenery. If you enjoy slow travel, it's well worth spending a morning here. -
