We spend aproximately 10 – 15 minutes at each statue, your guide is always happy to help you take photos or videos

If we visit Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu shrine the timings are similar but the route is slightly different. On bad weather days we will visit the shrine as the top of the Aso mountains can be very foggy.
