2025 Yasugi Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in October)

#2月好地方2025 I visited the Adachi Museum of Art, which doesn’t really look like an art museum. It was also the first time I saw the aesthetics of a Japanese garden displayed as an exhibit. It was so beautiful that it was eye-opening. No wonder it has been ranked as the most beautiful garden in Japan for 22 consecutive years! The Adachi Museum of Art is located in the suburbs of Matsue City, Shimane Prefecture. It is actually quite remote. If you don’t drive there, you have to take a train first and then transfer to a bus. The museum’s collections focus on two main themes: famous Japanese gardens and works by Yokoyama Taikan. Experience the beauty of Yokoyama Taikan's works through the garden aesthetics that Japan is most proud of. The museum garden covers an area of ​​165,000 square meters and is composed of small gardens of different styles. The green gardening and the white dry landscape form a soft abstract contrast, and the green and white complement each other to form a perfect scenery. The park includes: dry landscape garden, moss garden, white sand pine garden, pond garden, wooden crane waterfall, and an exhibition hall where indoor window frames are integrated with garden landscape. Windows of different sizes perfectly frame the beautiful views, just like a frameless art gallery. #Adachi Museum of Art 🕰️Opening hours: 0800-1700 📍Address: 320 Furukawacho, Yasugi, Shimane 692-0064 Japan 💰Average consumption: Ticket price ¥2300 #JapanExploreStore #Shimane #Adachi Museum of Art

I visited the Adachi Museum of Art, which boasts the best garden in Japan! ✨ It's a museum where you can enjoy both art and garden viewing, offering a double delight. The museum shows different faces each season, but how is the summer version...?! While autumn leaves 🍁, spring flowers 🏵️, and winter snow scenes ❄ are wonderful, in summer, you can enjoy the beautiful contrast of the lush blue sky and vibrant green garden. During this period, they prune the pine trees, so I got a glimpse of the craftsmen at work and took some valuable photos. Additionally, the museum seems to change its exhibits each season, and during the summer, Yokoyama Taikan's famous work of Mount Fuji was on display. It was a pity that I couldn't see his representative work 'Muga'. I must visit again in a different season... It took about 2 hours to tour the entire museum. Despite the midsummer heat outside, it was cool and comfortable inside, making for a meaningful visit.

📅 Itinerary Day 1: Adachi Museum of Art, Lake Shinji Day 2: Matsue Castle, Izumo Taisha Shrine 🏨 Accommodation: Matsue New Urban Hotel 🍴 Gourmet Spot: Kan'unrō 📌 Useful Information: The stunning garden at the Adachi Museum of Art was truly breathtaking. I spent six hours here, leisurely enjoying the art and the garden. Following the designated route, I admired the garden views, and on the way back along the same path, the changing sunlight revealed a different kind of beauty. Izumo's traditional dish "Uzuni" had a gentle flavor enhanced by fugu (pufferfish) broth. I enjoyed the "Uzuni Set" at Kan'unrō near Izumo Taisha Shrine. Not only was the uzuni delightful, but the tempura and other dishes were also meticulously prepared and beautifully presented, making it a feast for both the eyes and the palate.

The Adachi Museum of Art not only houses many paintings by modern Japanese masters, but also has a garden that is known as "Japan's No. 1". The window views inside the museum are cleverly integrated with the garden. Each window is like a carefully composed painting, which makes people stop and stare. The works of masters such as Yokoyama Taikan are displayed in a detailed and quiet manner, which contrasts with the dry landscape outside the window. The whole visiting process is slow-paced, the space is spacious and quiet, and it is a place where you can calm your mind and stay away from the hustle and bustle. I like to sit on the bench in the garden and watch the scenery quietly, and feel that time seems to have slowed down. If you love art or nature, the Adachi Museum of Art is definitely worth a visit. It is one of the most memorable moments in the trip to San'in.

Nestled in the serene countryside of Shimane Prefecture, the Adachi Museum of Art offers a stunning blend of artistic excellence and natural splendor. While its collection of modern Japanese paintings, including masterpieces by Yokoyama Taikan, is internationally renowned, it is the museum's exquisitely maintained Japanese gardens that truly steal the show.

The carefully maintained Japanese garden is perfect from any angle. It was very spiritually cleansing, so if you are tired from work, please go and visit it. Tips for visiting ☑️ The admission fee is 2,300 yen, and you can also purchase tickets online. I went on a holiday, but there weren't many people there, so I was able to relax. 📍Address: 320 Furukawa-cho, Yasugi City, Shimane Prefecture 692-0064 💰Price per person: 2,300 yen #0 yen trip February 2025
