Welcoming cat cave in former Men-no-Ishi stone, southern Aso area, Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan
そしてこれが、
かつて「免の石」と崇められた挟み岩があった洞窟
熊本大地震で免の石が崩落し
現れたのが猫神様ならぬ、猫のかたちをした「招き猫洞窟」！
2枚目は、「鳥の小塚公園」の展望所から見える洞窟です
外から見るとただの洞窟なんですが
内側から見ると、見てびっくり、確かに猫なんですよ！
片道は40分程度なんですけど
渡渉があったり勾配キツイ岩場や階段が多々あるので
きちんとした装備で行った方がいいですよ

Can you see a cat-shaped silhouette in the cave? This cave used to be a place to get stuck a huge stone called "Men-no-ishi" in the middle by a vertical narrow gap on the mountain in front of Tori-no-kozuka park that I posted. The cat-shaped cave, going by the name "Welcoming cat cave", miraculously appeared after Kumamoto earthquakes happened in 2016 and collapsed down the Men-no-ishi stone. Now it's getting popular as a new touristic spot, but you have to trek up to the cave for at least 40 minutes one way if you want to see.
If you don't want to trek, you can take a broad view of the cave from the Tori-no-kozuka park observatory like 2nd photo.
