Holidays in Nankan

Nankan is a place with heaps of cool stories to tell. If you reckon your life's been a bit dull lately, a trip here is the perfect answer!

It's 890 kilometres to the west of Tokyo, Japan's capital city.

Is there anything more pleasurable than reclining and reading a book next to the water? Spend some time at Iwaya Beach or Momochi Beach for a fabulous day out.

There is a variety of delightful natural sights just outside of Nankan. Why not make your way 40 kilometres to Unzen-Amakusa National Park? Alternatively, appreciate Mother Nature's artwork at Unzen Jigoku Hell, 40 kilometres away.

On a clear, sunny day, Jagatani Park is a great place for a picnic lunch and a leisurely walk.

There's nothing more exciting than the atmosphere of a live game of soccer! Watch the Roasso Kumamoto lock horns with the opposition on their home ground at KKWing Stadium, an impressive venue 30 kilometres away in Kumamoto.

Skiers enjoy staying in Nankan, as it offers easy access to Tenzan Ski Resort and Gokase Highland Ski & Snowboard. Don't forget to layer up! These snowy paradises can get very icy indeed.

There's even more just down the road. Omuta, 8 kilometres to the west, is known for the Coal Industry Science Museum and Green Land. Alternatively, if Ultraman Land and the Omuta Municipal Miike Carta and History Museum sound better to you, head 11 kilometres southwest from Nankan to Arao.

Want to go to Kumamoto Castle, the Honmyo-ji Temple and Hosokawa Gyobutei? Make your way to Kumamoto, 30 kilometres to the southeast, and set up camp. These attractions, as well as the Kumamoto Prefectural Traditional Crafts Centre and the Suizenji Gardens, are all close at hand.

There's a world full of rich flavours waiting to tango across your taste buds in Kumamoto. With plenty of scrumptious things to treat yourself to, all you need to bring along is a robust appetite — and perhaps your stretchiest denims.

Once you stop and thumb through a menu at a restaurant, you'll see that beef and noodles are a couple of ingredients commonly used in the local cuisine.

You don't need to agonise over the restaurant menu while in Nankan. Dive straight in and try some of the region's most well-known dishes, such as tempura (deep fried seafood or vegetables) and hakata ramen (noodles in pork bone soup).

You could be eating yourself into a larger pair of trousers, but anpan (sweet roll) is worth every single calorie. This much-loved dessert will make your taste buds tingle just by looking at it.

You won't get the full travelling experience until you've tasted the local beer. Whether you're looking to relax in a quiet corner or get some liquid courage to make new friends, order Asahi Premium Beer Jukusen.

Heard of junmaishu? It's one of the best ways to add some zing to your evening in Kumamoto. Ask the bartender for a taste and then throw back a shot or two!

Don't let any cultural barriers get in the way of a good time! Make your journey to Kumamoto a more satisfying one by memorising a few expressions in the local language. Try to get your tongue around 'Ikura desu ka?'. It translates to 'how much is this?'. One more common phrase is 'お誕生日おめでとうございます(otanjōbi omedetō gozaimasu)' ('happy birthday').

What better way to learn about the culture of a place than by being there during a day of national celebration? There'll be plenty of festivities planned for Birthday of Emperor Akihito on the 23rd of December.

Before you pack up your belongings and wave "後でお会いしましょう (Atode o ai shimashou)", why not spend the remainder of your holiday allowance and buy yourself some lasting reminders of Nankan?

If you're travelling via air, it's wise to map your route to the terminal beforehand. From the middle of Nankan, you'll need to go some 60 kilometres north to Fukuoka Airport (FUK), the closest airport.
