City Description

Miyazaki, a southern paradise that is warm year-round

Located on the southernmost Pacific coast of Kyushu, Miyazaki (prefecture) is about four times the size of Jeju Island. The north and west are mountainous regions and in the southeast region are plains where cities were built. Agriculture and livestock industries are developed in the outskirts of the city and forestry in the northwest. Approximately 5.6% of the population is engaged in primary industries and 77% is engaged in tertiary industries.

When you arrive at Miyazaki Airport, you will feel a soft breeze and the scent of the palm trees and the bougainvillea flowers that resemble a southern country.

The daytime temperature rises to 12-15 degrees in the winter, moderate temperatures of a southern country ideal especially for golfing among KOrean visitors. Attributable to such mild climate and close proximity to the beach, it is famous among golfers as well as surfing enthusiasts in Japan.
