Kuju region
©AFLO
This region is rich in scenic spots, interspersed with beautiful grasslands and wetlands registered under the Ramsar Convention, such as Bogatsuru Marsh and Tadehara Marsh. The Kuju grasslands have been maintained by hand by the local people to prevent an overgrowth of trees. The field burning event that takes place in March every year protects this landscape.
The Kuju mountain range stands at an altitude range of around 1,700m, including Mt. Nakadake, the highest peak in Kyushu. It is also known as the "roof of Kyushu."
