It’s the dirtiest city in Japan that I’ve been too, purely down to the light coating of volcanic ash every building, road and public bench seems to have. Very friendly though and the best butasando.

Exactly! First you notice its a bit dusty everywhere, then that places that are not regularly swept seem to accumulate dirt a lot faster than normal - ant then you put one and the huge volcano next door together and bam! :-D

Nice touch how the city runs ash collection points or how people living on Sakurajima itself (the volcano) cope with it. They have roofs over gravestones, transparent tents over fruit tree plantations & ash sweeping equipment on every bus stop. Oh and those flying rock shelters every ~600 meters. :)

I felt sorry for the poor school kids that had yellow safety helmets instead of the usual yellow bucket hats.

Butasando looks like some kind of food but it doesn't seem to be well know, this discussion already seems to be on third place on Google for the word.

Ah, sorry, pork katsu sandwiches. I’d recommend this place in particular: https://gurunavi.com/en/fb5k900/rst/?
