Kumamoto Castle is an architectural marvel, and I took many photos from different angles, each one showcasing intricate details. I was really looking forward to seeing the crater at Mount Aso, but unfortunately, it was under a red alert, so I could only view the volcano, spewing black smoke, from a distance. It started raining when I was at Kusasenri, which is a very relaxing place with endless green fields – very therapeutic. The horses there were very robust.
