With some great road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it’d be much more difficult to soak up everything that Miyazaki, 25 miles away, has to offer. Among the first stops you make here should be Aeon Mall Miyazaki, Sun Marine Stadium and Miyazaki Shrine. Situated 30 miles away, Kanoya is another place to aim for. If you swing by, be sure to check out Kanoya Rose Garden, Kushira Dugout First Telegraphic Communication Room and Kushiro Sakura Onsen.
