Insider tip — 'Yasuragi no Sato' (やすらぎの里 — village of tranquility) at Takaoka Onsen in the Takaoka district of Miyazaki city. Takaoka-cho merged into Miyazaki city in 2010. The hills of former Takaoka overlook the urban center to the east and the Kirishima volcanic chain to the west — a contemplative position between city and mountain that the onsen name 'village of tranquility' perfectly captures.
