South Kyushu prefectures launch tourism campaign for Taiwanese travelers

Kumamoto, Miyazaki, and Kagoshima prefectures in South Kyushu have launched the “#MySouthKyushuSecretSpot” Instagram campaign to promote regional tourism to Taiwanese travelers. The initiative invites participants to share travel photos, hidden gems, and itineraries via Instagram Reels or posts using a designated hashtag and tagging the official account.

The campaign offers 104 prizes, including round-trip flights to Miyazaki via Tigerair Taiwan, 7-ELEVEN electronic vouchers, and popular local mascots such as Kumamon, Miyazaki-inu, and Guriboo. The grand prize for airfare will be judged based on the quality of travel planning and coverage of cross-prefecture transportation.

South Kyushu offers diverse attractions, including Kumamoto Castle and Mount Aso, the mythological sites of Takachiho and the Nichinan Coast in Miyazaki, and the Sakurajima volcano and various hot springs in Kagoshima. The campaign runs until November 30, 2026.
