#100 Ways to Travel: The entire Sakurajima is my pastoral landscape! !
Senganen is located in the "Kagoshima" area of ​​Kyushu. Kagoshima was still called "Satsuma Domain" in the 19th century. It was the land used by the "Shimazu" family as a villa 🏠. From here you can see the famous volcano 🌋~ "Sakurajima" in the distance. The view from afar is really magnificent and shocking! 😱

History: As the villa of the Shimazu family, the style of Senganen is certainly not to be underestimated. It is one of the best gardens in Kyushu. It was established in the Edo period in 1658. The park combines natural scenery such as Sakurajima and Kinko Bay as a backdrop. It was rated as a World Cultural Heritage in 2015 and is also part of the "Meiji Japan Industrial Revolution Heritage". It is a pioneer representative of the modern industry during the "Meiji Restoration" period. Its historical positioning and significance are very extraordinary! !
In addition, travelers who are interested in Taiga dramas or Japanese historical dramas should be familiar with "Atsuhime" ~ the scene where it was filmed was in "Senganen"! ! , and the Kagoshima area is also the hometown of Atsuhime, and is also an important driving force for the "Meiji Development"! !

Park attractions:
1. "Tin Gate": It has a bright red appearance and was used as the main gate during the Edo period. It is made entirely of tin and is very heavy! ! At that time, only the eldest son of the heir could pass✅

2. "Goden": It is a guest house for receiving important guests. It also has the "Encounter Room" as the main reception place. The famous "Tsar Nicholas II" and "King Edward VIII of England" have visited successively
