Where's this mountain road, in Kumamoto Japan?

+0
−5

COVID permitting, I want to travel to Japan. I lighted upon the top and bottom picture on reddit.com/r/RoadPorn. 1. Please pinpoint on Google Maps?

  1. This road looks too hazardous and narrow for automobiles, because there's no fence! What kind of road is this? Solely for pedestrians?

Do the obvious research.

If you already know the town, then why can't you just look around with Google Earth? This ridge with the road cut is quite distinctive, and should be easy to spot within a general location.

Olin Lathrop‭ Why so complicated? Simply searching for the very same title as this question gives multiple hits with the name, history and other trivia on the first page of search results, e.g. https://planetyze.com/en/japan/kumamoto/laputas-road

samcarter‭ Google did not show me that result. Olin, I forgot about Google Earth. I shall download it.
