I Spent 3 Days Biking Around Kyushu, Japan — Here’s Why It Was an Incredible Way to See the Island

"Known as the "village of secret kilns," this remote pottery village flourished under the Nabeshima family in the 17th century, which helped conceal its ceramic techniques. Narrow, cobblestoned streets wind past studios selling distinctive blue-and-white pottery amid mist-shrouded mountains, lending the place a timeless, otherworldly atmosphere." - Rosecrans Baldwin Rosecrans Baldwin Rosecrans Baldwin is a Los Angeles Times best-selling author and essayist. His writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Nation, Slate, Salon, GQ, and The Morning News, among other publications. Travel + Leisure Editorial Guidelines
