Getting There -
Attractions - Mount Aso (阿蘇山, Asosan) is an active volcano in the center of Kyushu which most recently erupted in 2016 but has since calmed down again. Aso's ancient caldera ranks among the world's largest, with a diameter of up to 25 kilometers and a circumference of over 100 kilometers. In the center of the caldera stand the mountain's active volcanic peaks, including Mount Nakadake, whose spectacular crater is accessible to tourists.

Fukuoka, the overlooked cute little city in Japan
Played for two days
One day shopping in the city, experiencing the special night market and stalls
One day to see Aso Volcano and Kikuchi Valley
Quiet with fragrance, Fukuoka's fashion is average, not very good to buy, but some children's things are very cute, you can get a discount in department stores
The outdoors is really fragrant, used Ctrip's chartered car, the service and everything is very good, saw a bit of change in weather
Also proposed another small attraction, very surprised

If you would like to take the helicopter nearby Hong Kong, I believe the one at Aso, Japan fits you.
there’s two helicopter tours in the place, we took the one near to Aso, because we can have a look at the Aso volcano on the way. the price is around HKD1,000 for taking the helicopter tour for 10 mins around the volcano, you can have an overview from the top. the helicopter can be seated by two persons only at a time, so we have to take two rides in a total of 4 persons. our kids are allowed on board, they had a great fun on it. i think it’s worth to have the chance in my life.
we go there by car as it is convenient for taking kids with us, we dropped off to have a quick lunch while waiting for our turn to get on to the helicopter. having finished the tour, we shopped around their gift shop nearby and had an ice cream there too. suggested to go for the helicopter earlier to avoidthe long waiting, also, they have a lunch break, please take note of this.
