Greenland (Kumamoto)
Behold, one of western Japan’s largest amusement parks, ringing in a massive scale over in Arao, a city in Kumamoto Prefecture. With Japan’s highest roster of a whopping 70 plus attractions, join the unbeatable fun on rides like a giant Ferris wheel, measuring 100 meters wide and 105 meters tall as it turns with views over Ariake Sea and Aso caldera on clear days.
This place is huge and super fun! There are thrilling roller coasters and plenty of rides for families, too. The Ferris wheel is super romantic with amazing views. You can spend the whole day here and never get bored. Perfect spot for a family outing!

Chuson-ji Temple
Chuson-ji Temple, founded in 850 AD, owns over 3,000 national treasures and important cultural properties and is also registered as a World Heritage site. This temple was built to transmit the powerful wish to comfort the spirits of those killed in the Tohoku War, no matter which side they were on.
There are lots of Buddha statues covered in gold leaf inside the Golden Hall, but unfortunately, photos aren’t allowed.

Ginzan Onsen
This hot spring resort was developed along with the Nobesawa Silver Mine which prospered in the Edo Period. After the mine was closed, it was turned into a therapeutic onsen resort until a flood destroyed it in 1913. By early Showa Period, local businesses have helped restore the village close to the current landscape with western-style wooden multi-story buildings on either side of Ginzan River.
During the day, it just feels like any other outdoor spot, but I bet the atmosphere is even better when the lights come on at night.
