Kajiki, Kagoshima

Kajiki (加治木町, Kajiki-chō) was a town located in Aira District, Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan.

The interchange was opened on December 13, 1973, and extended north to Mizobe-Kagoshima Airport on November 29, 1976.

In the spring time, the park that runs along the river is a popular place for locals to enjoy Hanami (flower watching) BBQs.

Kajiki manju is rice dough filled with sweet red bean paste (anko).

Two interesting points to see in Kajiki are Ryumon Falls and a preserved section of a path Saigō Takamori and his men used to walk to Tokyo from Kagoshima.
