In Shiroyama Park, there are walking paths where you can enjoy the seasonal nature of pine and bamboo forests, cherry blossoms, camellias, and plum blossoms, and it is also a place of relaxation for local residents.

I went sightseeing in Shimane for 1 night and 2 days. | Izumo | First, I rented a car and went to "Inasa Beach" and "Izumo Taisha Shrine". 📝 It's recommended to go in November, when the gods from all over the country gather, as it's very lively! After the visit, I went on a food tour around Izumo Taisha Shrine 🍦 | Matsue | I moved to Matsue and went to Tamatsukuri Onsen ♨️ 🏨 Relax while eating and drinking at Tamai Annex. On the second day, I moved to | Shima |. I tried sand painting at the "Sand Museum" 🏛 They also have the largest hourglass in Japan that measures one year. It's a bit far, but I recommend you go there at least once. After that, I moved to Matsue again and went to "Yaegaki Shrine". Fortune telling is popular, where you float paper in Kagami-no-ike pond and see how far it takes for a coin to sink. There are still many things to see, such as art museums and sunset spots, so 1 night and 2 days was not enough. 📍Shimane #Shimane Tourism #Shimane Trip #Izumo Taisha Shrine #Travel in Japan #Japan

#discoveryourownjapan! I came to Shimane Prefecture in Japan to travel, and I heard that I must go to Takadoko's beautiful sunset scenery. This place is one of the 100 best sunset spots in Japan, and the scenery is very beautiful every time the sun sets. However, sometimes you really have to look at the weather when you see the sunset. You can only see it when the weather is good. If it's cloudy, you can feel a different scenery. There is a sunset cafe on the lakeside. It reminds me of the time when the sunset appears every day. Shinjiko Sunset Cafe, Business hours: 17:00 - Sunset.

Recently, I was fortunate enough to visit a very stimulating place. It is none other than the Eshima Ohashi Bridge located in Shimane Prefecture, Japan! This is not just any ordinary bridge. It is one of the steepest bridges in the world. Just hearing about this place got my heart racing. It's not only a miracle of architecture but also a brave challenge to oneself. When you stand on the bridge and feel the shock and stimulation, you will surely marvel at the wisdom and courage of humanity!

This is my first time to visit Hori Gardens. I noticed that if you come in different seasons, there will be different atmospheres. Just like in spring, you can see fresh green leaves, in autumn, you can see autumn leaves that I also like, in summer, you can try your luck to see fireflies, and in winter, you can see the scenery with snow. In short, if you come here all year round, you can enjoy different natural scenery. This is a mansion with a very old history and atmosphere, and the backyard is also very beautiful! We are visiting and strolling here slowly👣There weren't many people here when I went, so we could take a slow walk and enjoy the time here quietly! But of course I would really want to take photos and check in here as a souvenir, this place is so quaint🤎The transportation is convenient and you can drive from Tsuwano Station in about 15 minutes to get here. I think there is actually not much to go around Tsuwano Station, so let's just come here directly~ A little tip: you have to pay for admission, which is 500 yen per adult💴If you are interested, please collect it!

Shi see Yinshan, a world cultural heritage. In 2007, Shijian Yinshan Site and its Cultural Landscape became the 14th World Heritage Site in Japan and the first mine site in Asia to be registered as a World Heritage Site. It is said that during the heyday of the first half of the 16th and 17th centuries, Japanese silver accounted for about one-third of the world's silver production, most of which was produced in Shijian Yinshan. If you didn't do your homework beforehand, it's hard to imagine such a beautiful and fresh place, it turned out to be a mine relic. Original plan, just a rough feeling of the mine town walk, but it is reluctant to leave, become one of the favorite places of this trip to Sanyin. These were originally the supporting facilities for the miners' living and living, and now they have become beautiful and quiet villages in the mountains.
