Asobo no Sato Kugino Roadside Station

This roadside station is located in the Kugino area of Minamiaso at the southern foot of Mt. Aso, a volcano that boasts one of the world's largest calderas. Asobo no Sato Kugino offers a variety of attractions, including a restaurant with breathtaking views of Aso, a sprawling 3,000 square meter lawn area, a dog run, and a market selling fresh produce and local specialties. Additionally, the roadside station features a spring where rainwater that fell on the outer rim mountains emerges as spring water many years later, and a water wheel that utilizes this water flow to mill rice and grind flour.
