～Unzen Jigoku～ The scenery that looks like another world will take your breath away.

Unzen Jigoku is an active volcanoes in Nagasaki, Japan. It's one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country, and for good reason. The volcanic activity here is truly awe-inspiring.

I was blown away by the sheer power and beauty of the place. The boiling mud pots, steaming geysers, and colorful hot springs are truly a sight to behold.

If you're looking for a truly unique and unforgettable travel experience, I highly recommend visiting Unzen Jigoku. It's a place that will stay with you long after you leave.

Shimabara has long been called the "city of water"

Shimabara has long been called the "city of water", with water gushing out from everywhere in the city.

Shimabara has been recognized for its excellent results in urban development that utilizes water, and was designated as a ``Water Village'' by the National Land Agency in 1995.

Furthermore, in 1985, the Environment Agency selected Shimabara Springs as one of Japan's 100 Famous Waters.

The reason for its selection is that ``spring water used for daily life can be found in various parts of the city, and the waterfront environment has been maintained with the preservation of old waterways.''

It is said that around 200 years ago, the mountain collapsed due to volcanic activity on Mt. Fugen, and the crustal deformation that occurred at that time caused cracks in the ground, causing water to gush out.

In addition to providing a great deal of benefits to citizens as daily water, it has also become a valuable tourist resource that supports the ``City of Water,'' and is gaining recognition.
