Percentage of review submissions]Total 3440代Month of posting: 2023/09As a repeat visitor to Yakushima, I tried a new tour this time. It was my first time to visit Taichudake, but the atmosphere was very typical of Yakushima and had its own unique charm. The presence of the Tenpushiraishi stone was amazing. I would like to visit there again.
