Leave the crowds behind: Kobayashi City

Located at the foot of the Kirishima Mountains in southwestern Miyazaki Prefecture on the island of Kyushu, the city of Kobayashi is one rich in nature. Across the city’s three districts of Kobayashi, Nojiri, and Suki, visitors can bask in traditional Japanese landscapes of valleys, mountain plateaus, and satoyama where people cultivate land on the hillsides. 

Seasonal flowers bring a riot of color to the city’s Ikoma-kogen Plateau, a famous sightseeing spot and just one example of this mountainous area’s natural charms. 

Home of the celebrated Miyazaki beef, Kobayashi is a city famous for its livestock and food scene, where local carp, fruits and vegetables profit from its clear mountain waters.

Nature trekking and cycling as well as farm-stay experiences have seen Kobayashi become a draw for tourists and travelers from Europe seeking an alternative to Japan’s urban destinations.
