After Stories | Hokosatsu - A Journey of Water and Tranquility

Young woman relaxing in nature during a wellness journey in Kagoshima Japan

There is a place in northern Kagoshima Prefecture
where time passes quietly.

Landscapes surrounded by mountains.
Peaceful port towns.
Clear air and beautiful water.
Nature that coexists with people's lives.

"After Stories | Hokusatsu: A Journey of Water and Silence"
is a series centered in northern Kagoshima Prefecture,
themed around "journeys to soothe the soul."

While the Discover Kagoshima Series
introduces the nature and culture of Kagoshima as a whole,

After Stories
focuses on more tranquil and emotionally resonant journeys.

The Hokusatsu area offers
a different kind of richness than flashy tourist spots:

the richness of "doing nothing."

Gazing at the sea.
Feeling the forest air.
Walking through a quiet town.
And tasting the water.

Kagoshima, the home of ONSENSUI99,
is imbued with such a "culture of well-being."

Water Nurtures the Quiet Time of Hokusatsu

Kagoshima's nature
is supported by water that has seeped deep underground over many years.

Natural water that has passed through the volcanic ash layer (Shirasu Plateau)
creates a soft, mild taste.

ONSENSUI99 is also
natural alkaline ionized water sourced from deep underground in Tarumizu, Kagoshima.

A journey to Hokusatsu
offers "tranquility."

Listening to the sounds of nature.
Breathing slowly.
Gazing at ordinary scenery.

We hope the After Stories series
provides an opportunity to experience such moments.
