KYUSHU, JAPAN By Miles McAlpin One of the highlights of my trip to Japan was my visit to Takachiho Gorge on the southern island of Kyushu. The base of the gorge can be reached by car, but we opted to hike down from the Takachiho Shrine. The walk is under a mile, down hundreds of steps that descend through silent cedar forest. As the trees part, you are left to stare at the sun-lit falls above and the deep aquamarine water below.
