Kamakurakokomae Station?

No! I didn’t even know it. But now that I know it, yes I wanna go haha

Hmm, Yatsushiro station in Kumamoto.
Have you seen the Laputa road?

reply

Thanks for caring enough to zoom in! Haha. No. What’s the Laputa Road about?

It is a place to see when you go to Kumamoto in Aso-shi (or at least for people like me who are in the Kantō).
