Mt. Aso




Mount Aso is the largest active volcano in Japan and is among the largest in the world. It stands the east in Kumamoto. Aso has one of the largest caldera in the world. Aso is the symbol of Kumamoto as the land of fire. There many hot springs and leisure spots there. In addition, there are many good restaurants and delicious food there. For example, Takana which is pickles of Japan and ice-cream cones. They are sooooo good!!!! At night, you can see the beautiful night view. I sometimes go to see it with some friends of mine and it's very great☆ I like there because there are much nature and I can relax. (114 words/7820 words)

Shimotori

It's a center street of Kumamoto and there are many shops there s
o I like very much. It's the largest street in West Japan and it's 511 meters. The street was rebuilt on May and it became very beautiful and we could work easily. There are many trees there so we can feel refresh!! My best shop in Shimotori is PARCO and it has my favorite brand, MISCH MASCH♥ The clothes are so cute and the prices are not so expensive so I like. There are many young girls there everyday. I also like Tsuruya in Shimotori which is a department store in Kumamoto and there are many shops. Many people not only in Kumomoto but also in other prefectures come there. You can buy souvenirs from Kumamoto and buy clothes. I especially like Barbie which is popular brand for girls♡ I like Shimotori because I have places to go. (151words)
