This mystical shrine has been hot topic on social media as “the entrance to another world”.
97 stone lanterns line up along the approach leading to the main hall, the scenery that sunshine comes into the green mossy world is very fantastic.
When you walk through the main hall, you will find a huge stone called “Ugeto-iwa”.

Kusasenri is a vast grassy plain which offers great views of the volcanically active Nakadake Peak. Kusasenri also features a large pond and horses can be seen grazing on the land. This scenic location has become a popular feature of the Aso Geopark.
Mt.Aso's caldera is one of the world's largest calderas, which stretches 18km east-west, 25km north-south. Mt.Nakadake is still active and its crater is 600m in diameter, 130m in depth and 4km in circumference. You can see the huge crater emitting white smoke and the magnificent scenery up close. When the level of volcanic activity is high, you may not be able to approach the crater.

I completely recomend to take the tour with May san, she is such a great guide, without her help, it would be impossible to reach all the statues, and she knows where to Buy the figures and good snacks and sweets tips
Had a great tour with her, took us to 8 out of the 10 statues, very knowledgable about the location surrounding the statues and would stop at certain places with great view for us to take a picture. She also took us to an amazing Ramen spot for lunch. Highly Recommend!
Thank you very much for your kind review. It was nice weather to visit around nature in Mt.Aso and of course One Piece statues as well. I wish you all the best from Kumamoto, Mai.
Mai-san is just the best tour guide ever!! I'm a long-time One Piece fan, and seeing these statues in person was an absolute dream of mine that Mai-san helped come true. Many of the statues are spread out far from each other, so if you're interested in seeing all of them I highly recommend doing it with Mai as your guide! She made seeing each statue quick and easy and went above and beyond in getting my group to all 10 statues in just one day, even though we were on a time crunch. On top of this, she also identified and drove us to where each statue's figure could be purchased. Not only that, but she even went out of her way to help me get Luffy's figure from the Mugiwara Store in Kumamoto as unfortunately the normal spot in the Kumamoto Prefectural Office was closed on the day we went. Aside from the statues, Mai-san is also very knowledgeable about the Kumamoto prefecture, and it was a pleasure getting to know its history while seeing some beautiful sights of the countryside. I would love to return someday to take in more of the prefecture's beauty. Moreover, it was also a pleasure meeting Mai-san and getting to know her! She is very kind and accommodating, and if you book this tour, you absolutely will not regret it! I can't recommend her enough to anyone interested in One Piece or touring Kumamoto! Thank you so much again Mai-san!
Arigatougozaimasu for your kind review!! It was presure for me to guide with you around One Piece statues. I wish you can make more time to discover more around Kumamoto, Kyusyu. Thank you very much again!!
Mai-san opened up her schedule for us on short notice and was able to accomodate us to visit all 10 One Piece statues in one day. I highly recommend a guide such as her because some of the statues are hard to get to and the place where they sell the figures can be hard to figure out. She will help you get to them and help you buy them since she is a local, I can't recommend her enough if you are a One Piece fan!
Thank you very much for kind review. I am glad you enjoy the One Piece statues tour in Kumamoto, and it was pleasure to guide you around the statues. There are so many things you can visit about One Piece in Kumamoto except 10 statues. So please come back here again and waiting for your next visit!! Thank you very much again. Mai
