It lies north of the center of Shimog\u014d, between Fukue-jima and Tanoura-Seto, and is the third largest of the five island islands, after Fukue-jima and Nakadori-jima. It is an island with a horseshoe shape around about 52km with Kuga Bay in the center, and the center is the Kuga district in the back of Kuga Bay. During the Edo period, the government office of the Fukue clan was set up in Tanoura, and in the late Edo period, people who were hiding Christians were relocated from the outer waters of the Omura clan due to the pioneering policy. It is now listed as a constituent asset of the World Heritage of Culture \"Hidden Christian Related Heritage of Nagasaki and the Amakusa Region\". Among the five island islands, Kuga Island is particularly native to Yabutsubaki, and in the Tanoura area, there is a Yabutsubaki Primitive Forest, a natural monument designated by Nagasaki Prefecture, and it has been planted and used in various forms such as crafts, food, and fuel. The landscape of winter with beautiful flowers of dignified red and beautiful flowers is stunning. The entire island has also been selected as an important cultural landscape of the country as \"Cultural Views of Kuga Island in Goshima City\" due to the landscape of terraced rice fields and yobobaki on the sloping ground facing Kuga Bay. Some of the highlights include the former Olympic Church and the prison's Conquil Martyrdom Memorial Church, the burial ground of a lurking Christian, and the Orient Observation Deck. The island is touched by the history of hidden Christians, the beautiful landscape of camellia, and the warmth of people.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":83140,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"categories":[75],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-149830","travelpost","type-travelpost","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-spot"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/149830","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/travelpost"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/149830\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/83140"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=149830"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=149830"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=149830"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
