In July 2013 I attended a volcanology conference in Kagoshima Japan organized by IAVCEI (the International Association for Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth's Interior). I took some time off before the meeting, stopping in Narita, Matsumoto, and Kyoto. After the meeting I briefly visited Unzen and Aso volcanoes.
Here are some of my pictures from the trip.
