Yakushima is a subtropical, mountainous island located off the southern coast of Kyushu in Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan. Famously designated as one of the country's first UNESCO World Natural Heritage Sites in 1993, the island is renowned for its ancient cedar forests, dense moss-covered landscapes, and staggering rainfall. Often called the "Alps of the Sea," it features dramatic granite peaks rising nearly 2,000 meters into the mist, creating an otherworldly environment that directly inspired Studio Ghibli’s masterpiece, Princess Mononoke.

The Koshikijima Islands are a pristine, rugged archipelago located 38 kilometers off the western coast of Kagoshima Prefecture in the East China Sea. Administered as part of Satsumasendai City, this hidden gem consists of three main inhabited islands—Kami-Koshikijima (North), Naka-Koshikijima (Central), and Shimo-Koshikijima (South)—which are part of the protected Koshikishima Quasi-National Park.

Ushiku is a tranquil city located in the southern part of Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan, situated roughly 50 kilometers northeast of Tokyo.
