Kagoshima (鹿児島市 Kagoshima-shi, Japanese: [ka̠ɡo̞ɕima̠]) is the capital city of Kagoshima Prefecture at the south western tip of the island of Kyushu in Japan, and the largest city in the prefecture by some margin. It has been nicknamed the Naples of the Eastern world for its bay location (Aira Caldera), hot climate, and emblematic stratovolcano, Sakurajima. The city was officially founded on April 1, 1889.
Kagoshima City Tram, Bus and Ferry
I am sorry for the shaky camera. This is a brief overview on the different ways to get around in Kagoshima city. We are just briefly showing how to catch the city tram (shiden) and the buses (including Kagoshima Kotsu bus, and Kagoshima cityview bus). I hope that this will be helpful to someone.
In the video, I forgot to mention that for the Sakurajima ferry, you pay on Sakurajima, so you can walk right into the ferry from Kagoshima city and once you arrive onto the island, you can pay the fee.

Kagoshima, Japan - Sakurajima Ferry (2019)
The Sakurajima Ferry (桜島フェリー Sakurajima Ferī) is Japanese ferry which links between Kagoshima Port and Sakurajima Port, both in Kagoshima prefecture. It is administered by Kagoshima City Ship Department.
In 1914, the eruption of Mt. Sakurajima affected the islands inhabitants. They demanded a regular ferry service between Sakurajima and Kagoshima City for emergency restoration and commuting as part of educational development. Thus, a ferry line was established by Sakurajima village office on November 19, 1934. The number of ferries increased, and nowadays there is one ferry every 10 minutes during the daytime and every hour during the night. It takes about 13 minutes to go the 3.5 km across the bay. In 2004, the ferries carried 5.5 million people and 1.64 million vehicles. The reason for there being such a large number of passengers way beyond the number of inhabitants in Sakurajima is the great reduction in the time required compared with the land route.
In the event of Sakurajima erupting, there are special places to anchor the ferry for evacuation of the inhabitants. When heavy rains caused floods in August 1993, Sakurajima ferries helped to rescue residents cut off in the Ryūgamizu area. At the time, the Ryūgamizu area had no place for ferries to anchor, so local fishing boats helped take people from the shore to the ferries. During summer, one ferry is operated as excursion ship (to enjoy sights, drinking and in some instances fireworks). Ferries can also be chartered for weddings, etc.
There is a udon restaurant called Yabukin on each ferry. In spite of that people have to eat the udon in a mere 15 minutes, it is extremely popular.

【013】Kagoshima Shiroyama Park
Subscribe link :
Shiroyama Park (Shiroyama Kōen) is a park in downtown Kagoshima that stretches over Mount Shiroyama. With an elevation of 107 meters, the mountain used to the site of a castle fortification, which led to its name. Shiroyama literally means castle mountain in Japanese. The castle's former grounds at the base of the mountain now are the site of the Reimeikan Museum nowadays.
The park is most famous for its Shiroyama Observatory with magnificent views over downtown Kagoshima, Kagoshima Bay and Sakurajima. The night view is also great, especially if a fair sky and bright moon allow Sakurajima. Beautiful views can also be enjoyed from the Satsuma no Yu outdoor hot spring bath in hotel Shiroyama ,which is also open to non-staying guests.
Moreover, the park will hold the interest of travelers interested in Japanese history since it was the site of the final battle of the Satsuma Rebellion in 1877. The local hero Saigo Takamori is said to have made his last stand at Saigo Cave, situated within the park.
