Aso volcano mouth

We took a family road trip to Mount Aso this time.

1. Driving up the mountain requires passing through a tollbooth. First, you get a ticket and are asked about your health condition; then you pay. After that, you can drive up the mountain.

2. Pay attention to the hazard warning lights to see if you can see the volcano.

3. We noticed that every place with a "no entry" sign had pretty good scenery; you can avoid the signs and the volcano when taking photos.

4. It was windy and sunny and very warm on the day we went up, but you should still pay attention to the temperature and adjust your clothing accordingly.

5. The trails have some steps and some slopes, so older people can use the slopes to go up and down; they can still enjoy the beautiful scenery.
