Next stop: Quiet Rokugatsudon with glowing lanterns at the base of an active volcanoAbout this spot
Around the port where ferries connect Kagoshima city and Sakurajima, local eateries and souvenir shops cluster together. Watch ferries coming and going while having an early dinner before the main Rokugatsudon event. Shops here sell locally-made products using Sakurajima radishes and mandarins, making it convenient for souvenir shopping.
Tips
On Rokugatsudon day, roads around Tsukuyomi Shrine can get crowded in the evening, so an early meal is recommended. The harbor area gets especially busy during ferry departure times.
Best time to visit
Approximately 50 minutes. You can enjoy dinner during the calm hours before evening.
