Activity

Embark on a journey to uncover stories forged over a thousand years of ironmaking

Yasugi and Oku-Izumo are deeply connected to the tradition of Tatara iron-making. This tour invites you to explore heritage sites linked to the story and cultural assets of the Japan Heritage "Izumo no Kuni Fudoki"—a collection of oral narratives compiled in the early 8th century as a report to the imperial court—while engaging with current practitioners and finding inspiration for your own future.

Visit the special limited exhibition of the "Tamahagane Engi"—a cultural property of Yasugi City!

See the 55-meter-long "Tamahagane Engi" picture scroll, a Japan Heritage piece that illustrates the 1,400-year story of Tatara iron-making—on display for a limited time only.

A cycling tour starting at the mouth of the Iinashi River—also known as the Uyuni Salt Flats of Izumo

Embark on a cycling adventure that blends stunning scenery with rich local history and nature. Start your journey at the mouth of the Iinashi River, known as the Uyuni Salt Flats of Izumo, and cycle on to the ruins of Gassan Toda Castle, an impenetrable fortress from the Sengoku period, perched at 184 meters. From the castle ruins, enjoy breathtaking views of the Izumo Plain and the Sea of Japan.

Enjoy a relaxing time at Saginoyusou—a premium ryokan just a short walk from Adachi Museum of Art

The Adachi Museum of Art has consistently ranked first in the Japanese garden rankings by the US-based "Journal of Japanese Gardening." Just a minute’s walk away is Saginoyusou, a long-established ryokan that first opened in 1909. Unwind in this premium retreat with natural hot spring baths, refined cuisine, traditional Japanese architecture, and serene gardens.
