Miyazaki Prefecture

The terrain of Miyazaki Prefecture ranges from broad Pacific coastal plains in the east to rugged, forested Kyushu mountains in the west, creating a clear contrast between shore and interior. Along Hyūga-nada, the coast combines long sandy stretches with the wave-cut cliffs and subtropical vegetation of the Nichinan Coast. Inland, the Gokase River has carved Takachiho Gorge through volcanic rock, one of northern Kyushu’s best-known river landscapes. The prefectural capital, Miyazaki, lies on the Ōyodo River near its mouth. Agriculture shapes local identity, from celebrated mangoes to beef cattle, while Udo Shrine, set in a coastal cave south of the city, reflects enduring Shinto traditions.
