Experience of the stay
OMO Kumamoto is located near the shopping district close to Kumamoto Castle.
If you go by car, you can park in nearby parking lots and walk a few minutes, but it can be a bit inconvenient if you have a lot of luggage. Enter through the beautifully designed main entrance and take the elevator to the third floor Front Desk. The room was a Yagura room, and the kids were thrilled. You can book for four people, making it a good deal for families. At night, head to Kumamoto Yatai Village across the road. It was a great trip.
Experiences during the trip
On the first day, visit Nabegataki and Taiyou Gold Mine in Oita Prefecture.
Nabegataki is a popular spot with many videos uploaded. Reservations are required, and card payments are accepted. Entrance involves a QR code read, and it takes about 5 to 10 minutes on foot to reach the waterfall. The scenery is breathtaking for first-timers. Next, visit Taiyou Gold Mine, which is about a 30-minute drive from Nabegataki. You can tour the tunnels and experience panning for gold. It’s very cool in the summer. It's recommended to go from Taiyou Gold Mine to OMO Kumamoto via Aso, as there are many popular spots in Aso worth stopping by.

On the second day, enjoy a leisurely tour of Kumamoto Castle. You can walk to Kumamoto Castle from OMO Kumamoto. It was a fulfilling two days.
