 One of the best places to view the city (and Sakurajima) is from the Amuran Ferris wheel atop of Amu Plaza Kagoshima, and the shopping center attached to the central Kagoshima-Chūō Station.Just outside the city is the early-Edo Period Sengan-en Japanese Garden.The garden was originally a villa belonging to the Shimazu clan and is still maintained by descendants today.
