SCARY ERUPTION
When driving around Sakurajima, you sometimes find its eruption.
Watch and enjoy!
I am seeing this eruption from the west side of Sakurajima. (as you see in following map)
Earth is slightly shaking…!
Roaring sounds can hear from the crater in the distance.
FOR YOUR SAFETY CONCERNS
It is safe as far as you don’t go to the prohibited areas in Sakurajima.
It prohibited to climb Sakurajima because it is an active volcano.
But it is better to take sunglasses to protect your eyes from falling ashes while you are in Sakurajima.
MAGNITUDE of PAST ERUPTION
If you know to know more about the activities of Sakurajima in the past,
please see this article. (BURIED “KUROKAMI” SHRINE GATE”)
The half of the shrine gate was buried by ash as a result of eruption.
You will be impressed by the power of Sakurajima!
Her height is about 165 cm.
