Area Map
As a part of the ancient Izumo Kingdom, there are many shrines that enshrine gods in Japanese myths, and ancient tombs in Izumo City. They are a bit far from the city center, so it is a good idea to rent a car or a bicycle. Just watching the sun sets in the Lake Shinji on the historic site will give you an exceptional experience. Another attraction Matsue offers is the castles and samurai mansions that have been remaining in good condition as they were built in the Edo Period. These historic buildings are located inside the city so you can take your time to explore these valuable sites while strolling around the town. There is a hot spring district in the city with a full of well-equipped hotels and restaurants, too. You may feel that you like to stay as long as your time would allow.
