Aso is a city located in Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan. The modern city of Aso was established on February 11, 2005, from the merger of the former town of Aso, absorbing the town of Ichinomiya, and the village of Namino.

Let's go discover this very special haikyo with a man who is equally special, or maybe not.
Located in the cool depths of a mine, in the heartlands of central Japan, the design of this neutrino detector is mind-boggling.
Still dusty from exploring an abandoned clinic, on the way back to the car I chance upon a very pretty little street.
I just had to get close to the rusty old flying saucer spotted from above.

Emerald hills gleam,
Trails weave through verdant silence—
Nature`s quiet breath.
エメラルドの丘、
静けさに道を編む—
自然の静かな息。

Under skies of tranquil blue—

Snow coats silenced rides,
Colors muted, dreamland sleeps—
Winter`s whispered hush.
冬の儚夢
色の音、降る雪—
静寂の調べ

Moss blankets the earth,
Whispering tales of Jizo —
Green dreams in the woods.
苔が覆う
地蔵の物語 —
森の緑の夢。

Hues dance in moonlit embrace—
Nature`s bright whispers.

Volcano`s fierce hues,
Muted soil to snowy peak,
Mount Fuji`s grace reigns.
火山の色、
土から雪まで、
富士の美。

Stone roads weave stories,
Under skies of endless blue,
Red gate to the past.
石畳は物語を織りなす
青空の下で
過去への赤い門

Red bridge spans the stream,
Golden glimmers in the night,
Winter whispers glow.

赤い橋が流れる小川を渡り、
金色の輝きが夜を照らす、
冬の囁きが輝く。
