2015 Rice Terrace Tour of Japan | Kujukushima from Yumiharidake Observatory

Jun 16 | Evan | No Comments |

Our escorted tour of Japan continued from Karatsu in Saga Prefecture to Sasebo of Nagasaki Prefecture.  The hotel our group stayed at was next to a nice observatory with great views of Kujukushima.  Having such a nice place within a 5 minute walk from the hotel was very convenient for taking photos not only of the islands of Kujukushima but also the observatory offered nice views of Sasebo.  The views of Sasebo and the port were more interesting to me here, so that’s why you don’t see any views of Kujukushima in this post.  Don’t worry though, in my next post of Ishidate Observatory there will be more photos of Kujukushima than you probably want to see!

 

This view is also very nice in the evening with the lights of the city, but the evening we were here, it was too cloudy to see all of the mountains in the background. 

For the 2015 Rice Terrace Photo Tour of Japan, we also visited Doya Tanada, Hamanoura Tanada, Oura Tanada, Warabino Tanada and Mikaeri Falls, Jufukuji, Nijinomatsubara and Ishidake Observatory for Kujukushima.  Interested in joining a future Tanada Tour of Japan?  Contact me today to start your experience for Japan!
