#art gallery This art museum is located at the foot of the mountain The mountains are to Tottori what Shizuoka is to Mount Fuji. The glass in the museum is also affixed with the black hat that is the masterpiece of Masaharu Ueda. When the weather is nice, you can even take pictures of the mountains wearing black hats! Masaru Ueda is a well-known photographer in Japan and a native of Tottori. Therefore, many of the photos were taken with the Tottori Sand Dunes as the background and with family members as the main characters. This museum collects a large number of his works from early to late period Take a closer look at the exhibition room and you will feel like you have traveled to Tottori in a photo. What’s interesting is that there is also an exhibition room designed here that allows visitors to experience the feeling of being in the camera. You can see that the large lens in the exhibition room is aimed at the mountain and reflects it inside the exhibition room. You can imagine that we sitting in the exhibition room are the characters of the film, recording the mountain at the moment of the lens. There is also a hot dog cafe outside the museum. The signature is the 60CM super long hot dog burger! The buns on the hot dog burgers are crispy and chewy. There is green grass in front of the cafe, and the mountains are right in front of you. There are also picnic mats provided so you can sit directly on the grass to eat. It’s a good place to take a break after visiting the art museum. #dopamine travel #100 ways to travel #tottori #tottoriview #Uedamasaharu #日本 #大山

From Osaka, you can reach Oyama Kawazu Sakura-no-Oka Park in just over two hours by express train😉 Kawazu cherry blossoms are relatively early blooming cherry blossoms. This park has two rows of densely packed cherry trees. Although it is not large in scale, it has the advantage of few people and no tourists. You can take a quiet walk under the cherry trees or sit under the cherry trees and chat. And the park is right at the foot of the mountain, so you can take pictures of the superb cherry blossoms under the mountain 😍😍😍 I recommend everyone to come and see! address: 1800 Maruyama, Hoki, Saihaku District, Tottori 689-4108 Japan #OsakaSakura

Daisen Makiba Milk Village is famous for its Shirobara milk! I recommend it because you can relax on the grass while eating soft serve ice cream☺️ The parking lot is also free, so you can relax without worrying! I recommend buying sweets made with Shirobara milk and Shirobara coffee at the shop!!! Shirobara coffee and milk in slightly larger 900ml bottles are placed in cute styrofoam containers with ice packs, so even those who are traveling far away can take them home with them🤤 #DaisenMakibaMilkVillage #Tottori

Mt. Daisen is a place where you can enjoy the changing of the seasons. The weather changes in a short time, so there are limited opportunities to take pictures! A good place to take pictures is across from Miruku no Sato. The Western food menu at the restaurant is delicious, and the soft serve ice cream with a view of the farm is also very popular. If you go further towards the Oyamaguchi area, you will find cafes and shops selling Oyama Okowa. Down the windows and enjoy a green shower while driving♪ Address: Miruku no Sato, 2-11 Kobayashi, Hoki-cho, Saihaku-gun, Tottori Recommended point: It feels good to lie down on the grass!
