This art museum is famous for its best gardens in Japan. It's quite large, has many artworks, and is a bit busy if you're there for 2 hours. I think you need 3 hours or more. It was empty on a weekday, but it seems to be crowded on weekends. You can take photos of the Japanese garden, but the air conditioning is on, so you have to look through the large glass windows. The pictures by Yoshio Hayashi, a children's artist famous for "Peek-a-Boo," いないいないばあ are very cute♥️Many people must have grown up reading his picture books. After enjoying the best gardens in Japan, go through the underground passage to the annex. There are many fairly large paintings in the annex. You can sit and look at them. You can rest your tired feet😁Large paintings are amazing in their incredible craftsmanship when you look at them up close or from a distance. There are several gift shops and coffee shops inside. You can spend about 3-4 hours there.

The Adachi Museum of Art is truly a masterpiece. Loved the combination of art and meticulously designed outdoor landscape. Interesting how the outdoor landscape interacts with the indoor exhibits by means of window frames, bringing about a perfect harmony. Plan your trip well so that you can make use of the shuttle bus service without having to rush through the exhibits.

It would have been regretful if I hadn’t visited this place. Having lunch surrounded by the pond and garden was such a delightful experience. If you plan to take the bus to Yasugi Station, make sure to get a bus ticket after purchasing your entrance fee. Viewing the art pieces was very enjoyable, and if you’d also like to have lunch inside the museum, I recommend allowing at least two and a half hours for your visit It was absolutely worth the money and you can get a 100 yen discount on entrance fee if you have a foreign passport. There is also an English audio guide available.

Spectacular karesansui garden in the middle of nowhere. Worth a detour! Lunch was also very nice, very posh feeling, reminded me of The Imperial Hotel in Tokyo - with better views

It was such a great visit! Many art pieces to be seen, but no pictures as that wasn’t allowed. Beautiful landscape gardens all around were breathtaking (catch a shuttle bus to & fro JR Yasugi station)

Very beautiful gardens! The green and red arrows made the route easy to follow. We also enjoyed the museum exhibits. There are no photos allowed of the exhibits.

One of the best art museums I’ve been to in my entire life, if not the best. The gardens of the museum have been awarded the title of “best japanese garden” for 22 years in a row, and it’s clear to see why, they’re simply stunning. There are some parts in the museum where you have “living canvas” which is a window that frames the garden, and that’s absolutely breathtaking. The art collection itself is also pretty strong, with works by artists such as Imao Keinen, Sakakibara Shiho, Kikuchi Hobun and Hishida Shunso, but also modern ones like Hayashi Yoshio or Nishida Shunei. There’s also different cafes and tea houses inside if you’d like to freshen up! Highly recommend to go here at least once if you’re nearby :)

(castles visited 50+) Wow. This one was amazing! Parking was easy and straight forward to find. A map that made sense. The "100 castle stamp" was easy to find. This is a super unique castle. The san, ni, and hon maru are squeezed along the top of a very skinny mountain peak. Expect a hike. About 1.5km each way I think from the parking lot. Half of it is steep.

Of the 34 Castles I've visited, this is one of the most beautiful ruins I've ever witnessed. I can't wait to return.

There's barely anything here, you can't even really tell it's ruins unless you really like out. I wouldn't return (or recommend it for casual tourists)

Gassantoda Castel ruins are one of the most popular historical sites in Shimane Prefecture. This place is mainly associated with the history of 17th-century samurai warfare. The premises are well managed which has created a very conducive environment for tourists.

The stamp is located at Yasugi City History Museum.

Fantastic views all around! Steep climb up steps but worth it.

nice view

Very beautiful and doesn't get a lot of tourists. Admission to the grounds is free and there's a scenic point behind the tower to hike to, where you can see views of Mt Daisen, Yonago, Nakaumi and Cape Mihosaki. No buses go here as it's quite a peaceful place so find some way to get a car there or something. But, you'll certainly be one of the few foreign tourists they get!

Very quiet, surrounded by nature. This complex is lovely. At the top is a pagoda with some nice views. Well maintained- worth a trip if you’re in or around Yonago

This is one of the 33 Kannon temple pilgrimage. The trial through steps and beautiful green scenic sights is worth especially during spring and autumn . Shojin ryori (traditional style vegetarian food cooked for Buddhist monks) is a must try. The three storied pagoda is also beautiful!

Beautiful place to see autumn leaves. Very peaceful! You can get omikuji/fortunes in English.

Loved our visit. Huge groups of japanese men were just leaving on the tour bus and there was almost no one else but us. The mini omamori were very cute and we should’ve bought the whole set of them! It was not touristy at all and we pray it stays this way.

it is good. the statue in the gate is so good. it is one of the best temples which i visited. if you have chance, you should visit it especially,in march or april.

My firend living in Yasugi city told mi this was 'the hidden gem’. It is so beautiful.

fortune telling paper is sold at the shrine counter for 100yen and you have to pick the one at the most top. there were a few staff around and the youngest one is really pleasant and sweet!

Famous power spot to pray for love :) Was touched by the holy atmosphere the Shrine owns. They have beautiful Omamoris too.

Interesting shrine linked to the Yamato no Orochi myth. As seen from the picture the shrine is dedicated to marriage and matchmaking. Check out the Mirror pond.

Great historical Shinto shrine in Japan. This shrine has sacred atmosphere.

The section with the pond is nice, don’t miss it! The main area remains quite ordinary.

Beautiful little temple in Matsue. Worth a visit!

You must visit this place with your girlfriend. First visit a office in the shrine and get the fortune telling paper, then go to the mirror pond. You can float the paper on the pond and see if you can get along with your impirtant person

I paid a premium price for the peony viewing, but it turned out to be a very small area located right at the entrance. There were no other flowers, and the rest of the garden had little to see — I finished walking through it in about 30 minutes. Unfortunately, since I came by public transport, I had to wait nearly two hours for the next bus. If you plan to visit, it’s better to come in spring. I would not recommend visiting by public transport outside of that season.

One of the most beautiful and best maintained gardens I ever been. And I went to a lot 😉. The entry price is a bit high with 1.200¥ but you get what you paid for. Totally worth it. It has many quiet corners where you feel alone with nature. You can let your mind wander and relax. We went end of November and the colors were perfect. But this garden is beautiful in all the seasons.

Lovely garden and roses at this time of year. Sadly we were too late for the peonies in the garden, but the roses were beautiful.

Stunningly beautiful, one of my favorite gardens in the country. Visit in late fall to see the colors and illuminations!

The gardens were small, but stunning! The waterfall in the back is easy to miss, so be sure to take the right after the bridge. Lunch was very good.

A pretty relaxed and calm environment! You may not need to spend a lot of time here, but the views are worth visiting. Just to note, if you’re traveling by public transport, the bus intervals are every 2 hours and you have to make sure you don’t miss the last bus out.

We went on a rainy day, but it was still a great visit. They provide free umbrellas to walk around the gardens, so don't let the rain stop you from going. We visited in the autumn, which is not in season for their world famous peonies, but the gardens and landscaping are still outstanding

This is a very special place that we really enjoyed. The food is amazing! The temple grounds are wonderful to walk. Our room was a wonderful old traditional Japanese ryokan. The staff are very nice folks who gave us a warm welcome and went out of their way to take care of us.

Some of the best gourmet vegetarian food you will find anywhere

Unique experience for Japanese-style temple food. Every food is made of veggies.

Good room and great vegetarian dinner set. Good choice for a stay near the temple.

This place was fantastic!!! Great views and great food!

(Translated by Google) A lovely lady guided us to our room and gave us a detailed explanation of the food, baths and everything else. Although the bath was described as a semi-hot spring, after we got out our bodies felt warm and cozy, warm to the core. Our room was on the second floor, but we had meals in a private room on the first floor. It was my first time eating shojin ryori (traditional Japanese vegetarian food), so I was nervous, but everything was delicious. I was impressed by how the food was so attentive and heartfelt. The food, the service and the cleanliness of the room - this is what hospitality is all about. My mother said she'd like to come again. (Original) 可愛らしい女性の方が、部屋まで案内してくれて、食事やお風呂、諸々の説明を丁寧にしてくださいました。 お風呂は、準温泉と書いてありましたが、入浴後身体がぽかぽかとして芯まで温まりました。 お部屋は私たちは2階でしたが、食事は1階の個室でした。初めての精進料理にドキドキしていましたが、どれも美味しくいただきました。きめ細やかに心のこもったお料理に感動。お料理も接客もお部屋の清潔感も、もてなすとはこう言うことなんですね。また来たいねと母が言っておりました。

(Translated by Google) I had the most delicious shojin ryori (traditional vegetarian cuisine) I have ever eaten. They use carefully selected ingredients and the taste is such that you will want to eat it again and again. The katama-cooked kotake mushroom rice was also exquisite. The bath was an artificial hot spring, but it felt great. I felt this was the best inn. (Original) 今まで食べた中で一番美味しい精進料理を頂きました。 こだわりの食材を使われていてどれも何度も食べたくなるお味です。 また、釜炊きの香茸ご飯は絶品です。 お風呂は人工温泉ですが、とても気持ち良く入れました。 最高のお宿だと感じました。

¥520 for the baths is reasonable.I liked the female open-air bath and the not-too-hot Sauna. There are rinse-in-shampoo and body soap. The changing room has some kind of lotion. Would be perfect if they hv a cold bath that's actually cold.

nice spa!!!

(Translated by Google) I'll be using it from August 14th to August 15th, 2025. Next to the Adachi Museum of Art. There's a supermarket nearby, so you can do your groceries in advance. If you set dinner time to 6:00, you can enjoy a leisurely bath after dinner (after finishing at 7:00). If you're not in a rush for your morning bath, you can set breakfast to be a little longer and enjoy a long soak. As for the morning bath, the bathhouse is only open to guests, so it feels very exclusive. Dinner is a little more expensive, but I recommend upgrading. The Shimane beef and blackthroat seaperch are delicious. If you're planning a relaxing day in Yasugi City, I recommend exploring the Gassan Toda Castle ruins when the temperature is nice and then visiting the Adachi Museum of Art when it's hot or cold. I only managed to go to the Adachi Museum of Art. Next time, I'd like to go to both. [Gassan Toda Castle ruins is definitely a mountain climb, so be sure to wear something that's athletic. While it's a basic mountain castle, the baileys and other structures are well preserved, so it's a must-see for castle and history lovers.] (Original) 2025年8月14日⇒8月15日と利用 足立美術館の側。周辺にスーパーもあり事前買い出しも可能。夕食の時間は６時設定にすると食後（７時に食べ終わったら）ゆっくり湯船につかれる。朝風呂も急がないのであれば少し朝食をゆっくり設定にしたらたっぷり入れる。朝風呂に関しては銭湯利用が宿泊客のみなので独占感が凄い。 夕食は少し値段が上がるがグレードアップをすすめる。島根牛とノドグロはやはり美味い。 もし、安来市で1日ゆっくりするなら、気温の良い時間に月山富田城跡散策、暑い若しくは寒い時間に足立美術館鑑賞をオススメする。自分は足立美術館にしか行けなかった。次は両方行きたい。【月山富田城跡は確り山登りなので運動できるスタイルで。山城の基礎的な城なんだけど曲輪とか綺麗に残っているいるのでお城や歴史好きには溜まらないと思う。】

(Translated by Google) The best thing about it is that it's not too crowded and you can relax! I also like being able to go to the bay window and feel the cool breeze on my face through the screen door, which warms me up. There's also a section for local specialties and vegetables, and I always end up buying some. (Original) なんと言ってもあまり混まずにゆったりと入れるのが魅力！出窓に寄ると網戸を通して顔に涼しい風を感じながら温まれるところも好きです。 特産品や地元の野菜コーナーもあって、つい買ってしまいます。

(Translated by Google) For 850 yen you can enjoy both the pool and the hot spring. The pool seemed perfect for families. Some of the facilities were out of service due to aging. The hot spring also has an open-air bath and sauna. There was also a restaurant and accommodation. It was a Sunday during the summer holidays so it was quite lively, mainly with families. The pool and hot spring set cost 850 yen. Local vegetables were also on sale. (Original) 850円でプールも温泉も満喫できます。プールは家族連れにピッタリのようでした。老朽化のために一部の設備が停止していました。温泉は露天風呂やサウナもあります。レストランや宿泊施設もありました。夏休みの日曜日だったので家族連れを中心に結構賑やかでした。プールと温泉セットで850円でした。地元の野菜なども販売していました。

(Translated by Google) I use the facility once or twice a week just to bathe. It's located in a peaceful spot along the river, and I really like the scenery, with cherry blossoms blooming in the spring. The staff are all very kind and make me feel at peace. The only thing that's unfortunate is that there is a female cleaning staff member in the men's bath. The sauna walls, which I always look forward to, are weathered. Can something be done? I've tried not to worry about it, but it hasn't gone away and it's still bothering me. Thank you in advance. (Original) 週1〜2回、入浴のみ利用させて頂いてます。川沿いののどかな場所にあり、春には桜も咲き景観的にも気に入ってる施設です。スタッフのみなさんも優しく対応されて、穏やかな気持ちになります。 ただ残念なのは、男湯に女性清掃スタッフがいらっしゃること。楽しみにしているサウナの壁が風化していること。何とかなりませんか？気にしないようにしていましたが、消えることなく今もモヤモヤしています。宜しくお願いします。

(Translated by Google) An inn surrounded by nature. The baths can also be used as day spas. There's also an open-air bath, which is satisfying. There are no convenience stores nearby, so it's a good idea to do your shopping beforehand. Alcohol prices in the restaurant and vending machines are on the high side. The souvenir corner is modest, but sells local souvenirs. The food is disappointing in terms of taste and volume for the price. (Original) 自然豊かなお宿。 入浴は日帰り温泉と兼用になる。 露天風呂もあり満足。 近くにコンビニなどはない為、事前に買い物をしておくと良い。 レストランや自販機のアルコール類は高めの価格設定。 土産コーナーは地味なものの、地元のお土産が販売されている。 食事内容は値段んの割には味、ボリュームはイマイチ。

Love this Nepalese restaurant! Staff are incredible and speak a little English. Food is fabulous loved their lunch and dinner curry specials. They have unlimited naan and it is huge! Bollywood is playing on the TV and it's really a fun restaurant.

The best indian food ever and also the nicest people. It was so fun to eat here. Highly recommend!!!

Excellent Indian restaurant with very friendly staff. The naan and curry tasted really great, among the best I ever tasted I'd even say. I certainly did not expect an Indian this great in a town like Matsue but very happy we found it!

Today I went to Agan in Chidori Foods is very delicious and service is very good ❤️❤️

I came to Asian Dining Agan on a Saturday with a large group of friends. The staff was very nice and accommodating and the atmosphere was casual, but good. However, for a Saturday night, only about half of its tables were occupied. Most of us ordered some kind curry and naan. I ordered the Simple Dinner Set, which consisted of a small salad, Vietnamese spring rolls, drink, Chicken Curry, and Naan. The price was about 1200 yen, which is not bad for dinner. To be honest, I wasn't expecting much. Not a good sign for there to be Vietnamese spring rolls and yakisoba on the menu that is otherwise Indian Curry. Also another small red flag was that the default curry for my meal set was Chicken Curry. I'm not sure what that refers to, as most other curry places will have something more specific, like Butter Chicken as the default. I'm not so savvy when it comes to indian food. In fact before coming to Japan, I can barely remember going to any indian places, but having lived in Tokyo for two years before moving to Shimane, I was having curry almost once a week. Starting in the order that food was served to me, the salad was pretty standard, so not much to say here. Then, I got the spring rolls. Why is this on the set menu? Strange but I actually love spring rolls so I was just gonna roll with it. The spring roll was probably 60% rice noodles, which overpowered what could otherwise have been flavourful meat and shrimp (we will never know...). However, it was served with a spicy sweet and sour sauce that was quite tasty! Next I received the naan, which was brought to me in a large basket. Texture was good, definitely fresh, but the naan had a slightly sweet aftertaste, which I've experienced in a small portion of indian places. I tend to not like this extra sweetness. I received my curry last, not too much later than the naan. The curry had two chunks of chicken, and like the naan, was a bit on the sweet side. The consistency was thick, but not creamy. It had very light flavour, and towards the end, started to taste a bit carroty to me. I don't know if it had a bunch of carrots in it, or if it was just the extra hints of sweet. All in the all, the food here is not great. It would't satisfy my curry cravings, although the staff and owner of this place are all very nice, and endless naan refills are always great. Sorry but I probably wouldn't come here again... I would rather buy a curry packet from the grocery store. Another recommendation is to order off the Curry Menu, and to not order a Set Meal. Then perhaps the curry will have some kind of coherent flavour. Another tip: They have a stack of coupons to their place right next to the cash register. I happened to be pointing this out, and the very nice waitress ringing up our bill gave us a 10% discount.

It was a 6 star restaurant two years ago, with simple but delicious food much cheaper (and a little friendlier) than the current setup. The food is still nice and the staff are still friendly, but it used to be much more special

Great service, delicious food, good atmosphere. The staff can speak a little English, too.

I’ve personally been to many of the great castles across Japan and the world, so I always enjoy seeing an old original castle, and Matsue Castle didn’t disappoint! It’s a relatively short walk from the parking lot, and while we didn’t do the Canal boat ride, it did look fun. The castle itself may not be as large as Matsumoto or Himeji, but this also means there aren’t as many tourists which was really nice as we actually had the entire top floor to ourselves for four or five minutes as there was no one else there. I would definitely recommend anyone in the area to come and see this castle as it’s very easy to get to, not a crazy amount of walking and the entrance fee is not bad at all.

Seeing the original structure of the castle is a must for all castle lovers!! The descriptions inside were very informational. There are nearly 5 flights of very steep (and slightly slippery) stairs. If you are unsteady on your feet or have weak knees, you may consider not entering the castle. The castle interior is not air conditioned but is naturally cooler than the outside even in the summer.

This is a very beautiful castle with historical significance and artistic flair. Public transportation is also very convenient, with beautiful surroundings worth spending half a day visiting, and you can also take a boat tour of the nearby area.

Beautiful castle with scenic views from outside and the top floor. There are many, many stairs and it is not handicap accessible. There was also a shrine and western house. It was definitely worth the stop!

One of Japan's 12 "original castles". Very nicely built and pretty surroundings! You also learn a lot about wooden pillars inside the castle. If you are a pillar enthusiast, don't miss out on this one.

My favourite Japanese castle. Apparently it's the only one that hasn't had to be reconstructed. Also has the big advantage of not being overcrowded.

I absolutely loved visiting Matsue Castle! This historic fortress, completed in 1611, is one of only 12 original wooden tenshu still standing in Japan—and one of just five designated National Treasures . Highlights: • The black, austere “plover castle” silhouette is stunning, especially contrasting with seasonal backdrops—cherry blossoms, autumn leaves, or even snowy white . • Climbing the six-storey interior gives a sense of history—creaky wooden floors, samurai-era artifacts, and narrow staircases evoke a bygone era . • At the top, you’re rewarded with breathtaking 360° views over Matsue city and tranquil Lake Shinji . Great extras: • Horikawa moat cruise: A peaceful boat ride through canals offers charming perspectives of the castle and historic samurai district . • Beautiful grounds: Jozan Park surrounds the castle—ideal for walks under cherry blossoms in spring or fiery foliage in autumn . • Cultural events: Time your visit for the Oshiro Festival in April or the Tea Ceremony Festival in October to see the castle illuminated and filled with traditional performances . Tips: • Entry is ¥680 (castle only) or ¥1,100 with nearby samurai museum and Lafcadio Hearn collection . • Open daily from 8:30–18:30 (summer) and 8:30–17:00 (winter). Closed only for admissions 30 minutes before close . • Easily reached via a 25–30 min walk from Matsue Station or a quick ride on the Lakeline sightseeing bus . • Small boat tours run between 09:00–17:00, with audio guides in multiple languages .

Unusual to see a green building that belongs in the Deep South of the USA next to such an iconic Japanese castle but it was interesting

Looks European and is a cafe now. Next to an old temple it is incongruent but than again Japan is such.... No offence, rather a contrast.

Love the atmosphere of this place.

GOOD

Very nice!

nice place

(Translated by Google) Kounkaku (designated a tangible cultural property by Shimane Prefecture) is a Meiji-era Western-style building located in the Ninomaru bailey of Matsue Castle in Tonomachi, Matsue City, about 1.9 km northwest of Matsue Station. Opening hours are 8:30 AM to 6:00 PM, and admission is free. Built by Matsue City in 1903 as the Matsue City Crafts Exhibition Hall, it is one of the few remaining Meiji-era buildings in Shimane Prefecture. Originally intended to serve as a temporary residence for Emperor Meiji, it is richly decorated with ornaments and carvings, resulting in an ornate finish. While the emperor's tour of the building ultimately did not materialize, in 1907 it was used as accommodation for Crown Prince Yoshihito (later Emperor Taisho). Renovations were carried out in 1912, including moving the front staircase to the back, and the building has since been used as an official welcoming center for Matsue City, as well as for various exhibitions and meetings. There is a driveway at the front and it is an elegant structure surrounded by richly decorated pillars. As the Showa era began and the atmosphere of war deepened, the building was converted into various uses, including the Matsue Regional Navy Personnel Department building, the Shimane Prefecture branch of the Great Japan Air Defense Association, and after the Shimane Prefectural Office was burned down in the chaos after the war, it was converted into a temporary prefectural office annex and the Matsue City Board of Education Secretariat. From 1973, it operated as the Matsue Local Museum, exhibiting materials on local history and folklore. The building closed in 2011 and was restored to its current form in 1912 with the relocation of the staircase. Preservation and repair work was carried out from 2013 to 2015 to find new uses that make the most of the building's history and charm. (Original) 興雲閣（こううんかく：島根県指定有形文化財）は、松江駅の北西1.9kmほどの松江市殿町の松江城二ノ丸に建つ明治建築の洋館です。 開館時間8時30分～18時で、入場無料です。 明治36年（1903年）松江市が松江市工芸品陳列所として建てた島根県内に残る数少ない明治建築です。 当初、明治天皇の行在所に使用する目的でつくられたため、装飾・彫刻を多く用いた華麗な仕上げとなっています。結果的には天皇の巡幸は実現しませんでしたが、明治40年（1907年）皇太子嘉仁親王（のちの大正天皇）のご宿泊所としても使用されました。 明治45年（1912年）に正面の階段を奥に移動するなどの改修が行われ、松江市の公的な歓迎所として、また、各種の展覧会場、会合に使用されました。 正面には車寄せがあり、周囲を豊かな装飾で飾る柱を配した優美な造りです。 昭和に入り戦時色が濃くなると松江地方海軍人事部庁舎、大日本防空協会島根県支部庁舎、終戦後の混乱で島根県庁が焼けた後は県庁仮分室、松江市教育委員会事務局庁舎などに転用されました。 昭和48年（1973年）から『松江郷土館』として郷土の歴史・民俗資料などが展示されました。 平成23年（2011年）に閉館し、階段室を移設し て現在の形態となった明治45年に復原するとともに、建物そのものの持つ歴史と魅力を生かした新たな活用のため、平成25年度から平成27年 度にかけて保存修理工事を行いました。

Nice museum. Require removal of shoes to enter - shoes can be stored in provided lockers. Has a tea house with views of a japanese garden - a few tables with chairs with the main area being tatami covered. Nice macha tea on offer with snacks as sets. There is a display of the traditional Japanese tea house around the end of the hallway. The souvenir shop is directly across the tea house.

Worth a visit for a more in-depth sense of the city beyond the castle and as a jumping-off point to visiting Izumo. A welcome stop for tea and choice of wagashi or traditional sweets in view of the castle.

One of the best places to experience local Japanese cultural Immersion with a tea event. I love it! Highly recommended. Efficient. Easy. Relaxing.

A spacious and well mantained museum that parallels well with the nearby castle and historic regions. Highly recommend the on site cafe for a quick afternoon tea.

Genuinely don’t know how Japan is this good at museums. The exhibits are a fantastic mix of traditional artifacts and interactive screens, there’s some really fun models, a fantastic gift shop and cafe, and the staff were some of the nicest I’d encountered on my most recent trip to Japan. Super recommend the cafe, you get to sit in front of a nice Japanese garden complete with a view of the castle.

we visited this museum as a prelude to visting the matsue castle. they have a small but high quality collection of local artefacts arranged to present the history of matsue castle. there is an english audio guide available for free as well discount tickets for non japanese. You can get a combo ticket for museum and castle. they have regular art exhibitions. there is an excellent coffee shop and gift shop.

Wonderful introduction into the rich history and culture of Matsue.

An excellent museum profiling the life of Lafcadio Hearn, a legend whose works made an impact to Japanese literature through engaging exhibits. Definitely worth a visit!

This museum was way more engaging and interesting than I thought it would be. As an English teacher in Japan, it was very fascinating to learn about Lafcadio Hearn’s experience teaching in Japan so long ago. There’s a lot of English information, so even if you can’t read Japanese, this museum will keep you busy for some time. Plan at least a half hour here. You can examine old newspapers. There was also a display detailing people who were influenced by Hearn’s life and works. I would come back here. It was very inspiring for me on how to live a life doing lasting and worthwhile things.

Interesting museum that details the life of Lafcadio Hearn, one on the earliest westerners to teach in Japan, live there and write about the country. The museum was a bit small for the admission price and, oddly, didn’t allow photos in one room, but not the other. Still, it's worth a visit as Hearn was an interesting figure in post 1868 Japan.

Despite knowing a bit about Hearn already and having read some of his work, I was going to skip this museum. There are a lot of other places in Matsue to get to! But another reviewer mentioned it was more engaging than they thought it would be and that just piqued my interest and I am very grateful to that reviewer. This is a great museum! So well-laid out, so organized and so much helpful signage in English. I especially enjoyed learning at length about the contributions of Koizumi Setsuko, Hearn's wife and partner. I went on a busy, rainy festival weekend but it wasn't too crowded. And it's located right near Matsue Castle. Spend some time here!

Extremely thorough museum and interesting even if you don't know much about Hearn.

Fascinating museum. Extremely well presented. Spent over an hour there learning about someone we'd known nothing about previously but who made such a huge contribution in such a short time. Full marks to the museum curators who've created the bilingual displays.

My family and I are from Ireland and we were very curious to visit the museum. It is a beautiful museum and the displays were as interesting as the story they were telling. We learned so much about Lafcadio Hearne, the layout of the museum ensures there is a lot of information, pictures and drawings on display. I loved to hear about Japanese writers and international figures who were influenced by him. My kids (9 & 11) loved it too, especially the drawings of some Japanese ghost stories! Upstairs some local school children had completed a project about Ireland and it brought a year to my eye! Great museum.

I was surprised how huge the place is. The hydrangeas were in full bloom and we took really beautiful photos. A matcha drink was definitely a great way to end the tour.

The nature around the temple and the tea room is magnificent. However, the garden in the entrance area is barely maintained and looks wild and ugly and there is also some conservation construction going on. The deeper you get into the depth of the temple garden the more gorgeous it becomes. So go to the garden and spend money and get a tea so that the conservation can be proper!

Surrounded by bamboo forests and silence, you can fully enjoy the peaceful solitude of this temple. I was surprised there was no one else here besides the staff at the entrance. This area was really cool. I loved admiring the woodwork and unique designs of birds and flowers in each gate of the mausoleums. I’ve never seen anything like the large stone turtle, which added to the slightly eerie atmosphere. After walking around, you can step inside the tea house there and enjoy looking out at the Japanese garden while you wait for the next bus. The tourist loop bus stops across the street to the temple, so it is very accessible.

It’s a shame that it’s been neglected for so long, including the famous statue of the giant turtle. They’re doing some renovations but it’s too little too late. The place almost looks abandoned and in terrible disrepair. There really isn’t a temple component for visitors to appreciate; it’s more of an old VIP cemetery of regional rulers.

I loved how there were hardly any people, so you can fully appreciate the temple structures and grounds. The giant turtle is a must-see. Very unusual and noble looking.

Massive tombs with historical stories, too bad I have no interest within. Elegant madam at the service table. Tasty matcha and snacks set with such a cozy view.

It's the old family cemetery for the Matsudaira clan that used to rule matsue back during the Edo period. The temple itself is quite old and major renovations are being done to fix it up. Hopefully it'll be repaired to it's former glory. The main sites are the burial grounds for the leaders over the years and a giant turtle statue that is said to bring good luck. Admission is reasonable at 700 yen, but I think it's 600 if you show your matsue castle ticket stub. I also tried their matcha tea set, which is pretty cheap at 600 yen. You get to enjoy the tea garden while you drink and eat your snack.

A very beautiful store! Unfortunately I was told it was closed when I entered at 4:50pm on a Wednesday. Disappointed. Just edited the data in Google map and hope the store will update its hours soon.

Every dessert is huge enough compared with one in other Japanese cafe. Tastes good.

Small coffee place with nice cakes, located right on the river. They also have a sandwich menu that we liked the look of, but they had stopped serving sandwiches both times we came. The staff were very nice though.

Beautiful classic kissa with great toast and coffee. Morning sets are good value.

Food was pretty average, but the place itself and the view of the waterway are very beautiful.

Beautiful store overlooking the river. Food was very good and reasonably priced.

The environment is beautiful!!!

After passing through Matsue previously, I vowed to return in order to visit the Adachi and welcomed the opportunity to include visiting the Shimane Art Museum as well. I suspect its collection is a little overshadowed by it's stunning location and architecture but deserves equal recognition. I appreciated how the European paintings exhibited echoed the view of Lake Shinji outside, but it was the special Hokusai exhibition that frankly impressed. Not only does the Shimane Art Museum contain one of the largest Hokusai collections in Japan, the Nagate Seiji bequest allows it an exceptional breadth and depth. Consider yourself lucky, as I did, if you catch an exhibition featuring this personal collection -- the extensive display of woodblock-printed books (origins of manga!) very much expanded my appreciation and understanding of the master. The architecture of the museum deserves a separate write-up -- there's a generosity of spirit as embodied by it's art library loge and that they allow photography that's matched by the kind people who work there.

This museum has a great hospitalityfor visitors who want to watch sunset. It closes 30 minitues after the sunset. So you can enjoy the great view from here. I miss the art works here because I didn't have time to see.

Architecturally beautiful building at a waterfront setting. Spacious interiors with excellently curated exhibits. Like all museums, it is important yo check what exhibits are currently on display. Only the permanent exhibit was available on the date that we attended, but it was still well worth the visit and the very reasonable entrance fee.

Stunning museum by Shinji lake. It has a great restaurant, a museum shop, desks for studying and reading and a lookout for the lake. Very beautiful sunlight comes into the museum with sunsets. Just visiting there is free.

I've been to this museum more than 5 times now and I keep coming back! The exhibition is switched up from time to time, so I see something new every time I go. This time I visited to see the special exhibition featuring the works of Hokusai. The museum received a collection of Hokusai works, extensive enough that they will keep researching it for around 7 years apparently. The museum is right next to a huge lake, and it's known as a sunset-watching spot. The large grounds around it are a good spot to go to with children.

A nice museum with a fantastic view over the lake and extensive collection by Hokusai of which unfortunately very few items are on display at any one time. One appreciates that for the visitors who live locally there is an element of thrill associated with seeing a new piece from the collection next time when the selection of prints on display changes, but the thrill loses the point for visitors from far away who cannot come to Matsue often.

Very nice art museum, located along the river in Matsue. Permanent exhibition on the second floor with five galleries. Featuring some contemporary, photography, sculpture and 19th century painting pieces. The special gallery on the first floor, currently featuring works from Hokusai.

I read about Lafcadio Hearn and his stay in Matsue (although at only 18 months, it was a much shorter stay than I had thought) decades ago after arriving in Japan, and was really glad to finally visit Matsue and find out more about his values, what kind of a person he was, and why he became so popular/famous in Japan. His former residence has a beautiful classic Japanese design and you can understand why Hearn felt so comfortable there - although I'm sure it was freezing in there during the cold winters! If you are interested in learning more about him, this well-maintained house and the museum next door are well worth visiting. We also strolled around the neighbourhood to visit some of the places he used to frequent.

I'd seen the Lafcadio Hearn Museum on a previous visit, and was glad to be able to visit the former residence to complete the picture of what seems a great romance. It's a humble place but evocative just the same, and appreciated the opportunity to see where he and Setsuko (and their 4 children?) lived.

As a fan of Hearn, it’s a really wonderful place to just wander around and explore. Really get the sense of being in a place someone once loved, lived in, and just… existed in. It’s got a lot of character to it and some nice gardens. There’s less documentation inside, compared to his Kumamoto home, but I imagine that’s due to the museum being next door. As a note, there’s a monument that includes some of his hair nearby, but I missed it when I went, so keep an eye out for it in the courtyard.

The ticket was a bit misleading (the combo ticket with the museum doesn't include the house) and the house wasn't that impressive. Just visit the samurai house down the street for a better experience until you really like Hearn and need to see the house (otherwise just go to the Hearn museum).

Lafcadio Hearn's (Koizumi Yakumo) former house is very neat and well preserved. It wasn't too crowded when I went and it was very picturesque. It wasn't quite worth the admission price, even though I bought the museum/house combo ticket.

I like Lafcadio Hearn's stories, and it absolutely trilled me to be able to finally visit his former residence. The landscape is really stunning, the surrounding streets are also very traditional-looking, it's very relaxing to walk among those streets.

Very small and just a couple rooms, but if you are interested in seeing more about Lafcadio Hearn’s life, check it out. There are some nice artworks and displays. You can rest your mind looking out at the Japanese garden. It is discounted for foreign visa holders. You can take pictures inside, too.

The deity enshrined here is Izanami-no-Mikoto. If you visit Iya Shrine, it would be a good idea to also visit Yomihirasaka.

Historic place . Peaceful and serene.

The legend and the faith are here

(Translated by Google) I went to pay my respects. There was a sign saying the shrine was closed at the office... There was a note at the worship hall, so I put 300 yen in the offering box. There is a parking lot, but it seems that some people use it for purposes other than worship. Due to Yomihirasaka, the number of visitors comes by slowly. The atmosphere was good, and I felt like I was given power. (Original) 参拝しました。 社務所でお休みの張り紙が・・・ 拝殿の所に書き置きがあったので300円お賽銭箱に入れておきました。 駐車場はありますが参拝以外で使用されてる方が居られるみたいです。 黄泉比良坂の関係でポツポツと参拝者が来られます。 雰囲気も良く、パワーをもらった気がしました。

(Translated by Google) The atmosphere was filled with good energy. The following is from Shimane Tourism Navigator. Iya Shrine is an ancient shrine listed as Ifuya-ya in the Izumo Fudoki, and is a shrine that was highly regarded in the central government. The main deities worshipped are Izanami-no-Mikoto, famous from Japan's creation myth, as well as Ōnamuchi-no-Mikoto, Sukunahitonano-Mikoto, and Kotoshironushi-no-Mikoto. The main hall is built in the style of a large shrine, and its altar is notable for being oriented from left to right, opposite to Izumo Taisha Shrine. (Original) いい気が満ちていました。 以下しまね観光ナビより。 揖夜神社は『出雲国風土記』に伊布夜（いふや）社として記載されている古社で、中央でも重視された神社です。 主神祭は日本の国生み神話で有名な伊弉冉命（いざなみのみこと）とともに、大巳貴命（オオナムチノミコト）、少彦名命（スクナヒトナノミコト）、事代主命（コトシロヌシノミコト）です。 本殿は大社造り、神座は出雲大社と反対で、左から右に向かっているのが特徴です。

(Translated by Google) This is my second visit. The open, airy feel of the worship hall is the perfect image of Iya Shrine. It feels like it flushes out stagnant things and makes everything smooth. There are so many mosquitoes!!! (lol) It's tough to be at a shrine this time of year (end of September)! (Original) 2度目のご挨拶。 拝殿の、スコーンと抜けた感じが揖夜神社さんのイメージそのもの。 停滞しているものを流して円滑にしてくれる…そんな感じがします。 蚊が多くて！！！（笑） この時期(9月末)の神社は辛いですね！

(Translated by Google) I went there as part of my pilgrimage to the Iurokusha Shrines. The grounds were beautiful. It feels like a local shrine for people who live in the area. It's near Yomihirasaka, so it's definitely worth a visit. (Original) 意宇六社巡りで行ってきました。 境内も綺麗でした。 この辺りにお住いの方の 地元の神社って感じがする神社です。 黄泉比良坂のそばなので、一見の価値ありです。

This museum is not very welcoming—in fact, they are outwardly hostile to visitors. An associate of the museum stalked me as I walked through the exhibition, apparently because he thought I was going to break the “No Photos” rule since I was carrying a camera. By the way, the photography restrictions here are totally silly. There is morning sensitive or ancient in the exhibition. I wouldn’t recommend making the journey here.

Beautiful

(Translated by Google) Visited on May 17, 2025 This is a museum where you can learn about the history of "Tatara ironmaking". The admission fee is not that expensive. I recommend that you first watch a 15-minute video and then tour the museum. Tamahagane, the material for Japanese swords, is made from "Tatara ironmaking". "Tatara ironmaking" was popular in the Chugoku region because of the high quality iron sand that was available in the region. The Wako Museum exhibits various ironmaking tools and materials that were actually used in "Tatara ironmaking", and you can also experience holding a Japanese sword, making it a facility where both adults and children can learn. The elements that convey the culture of tatara ironmaking are called constituent cultural properties, and the area is made up of three areas: Yasugi City, Unnan Town, and Okuizumo Town. In April 2016, it was certified as a Japanese Heritage Site as "Izumo Province Tatara Fudoki - A Story Born from a Thousand Years of Ironmaking". (Original) 2025年5月17日に訪問 ｢たたら製鉄｣の歴史を学べる博物館です。 入場料はそんなに高くはないです。 まず最初に15分ほどの映像を見て、それから館内を見学していくのがいいかと思います。 日本刀の材料である玉鋼は｢たたら製鉄｣から生まれます。 中国地方は良質な砂鉄が採れたことから｢たたら製鉄｣が盛んに行われていました。 和鋼博物館には｢たたら製鉄｣で実際に使用されていた各種製鉄用具や資料などが展示されていて、体験型の展示や日本刀を持つ体験もでき大人から子供まで学ぶことができる施設です。 たたら製鉄の文化を伝える要素を構成文化財と呼び、安来市・雲南町・奥出雲町の３つのエリアで構成されています。 2016年4月に｢出雲國たたら風土記～鉄づくり千年が生んだ物語～｣として日本遺産に認定されています。

(Translated by Google) Located in Yasugi City, Nagano Prefecture, the Wako Museum of Japanese Steel is a comprehensive museum centered on the ancient Japanese ironmaking technique of "tatara ironmaking." It's a valuable facility where visitors can experience the deep connection between iron and culture. Admission is very reasonable: 310 yen for adults, 210 yen for high school students, and free for junior high school students and younger. Group discounts are also available. Opening hours are 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM (last entry at 4:30 PM). Closed Wednesdays (or the following weekday if a national holiday falls on a Wednesday) and over the New Year's holiday period (December 29th to January 3rd). The museum features a wide range of exhibits and video displays related to tatara ironmaking, including the "tenbin fuigo," a nationally designated Important Tangible Folk Cultural Property. Visitors can systematically learn about the ironmaking process, history, and distribution system. Experience the "tenbin fuigo" (balance bellows), a blower used from the Edo period through the Meiji period, for yourself. You can also try holding a Japanese sword with the blade removed, a unique experience that allows you to get a feel for the weight of the weapon and the physical strength of the warriors of that time. (Original) 根県安来市にある和鋼博物館は、日本古来の製鉄技術「たたら製鉄」を中心に据えた総合博物館であり、鉄と文化の深い結びつきを体感できる貴重な施設です。入館料は一般310円、高校生210円、中学生以下は無料と非常に良心的で、団体割引もあります。開館時間は9時から17時まで（最終入館は16時30分）、休館日は水曜日（祝日の場合は翌平日）と年末年始（12月29日～1月3日）です。 館内では、国の重要有形民俗文化財に指定された「天秤ふいご」など、たたら製鉄に関する実物資料や映像展示が充実しており、製鉄の工程や歴史、流通の仕組みまでを体系的に学べます。特に「天秤ふいご」は体験可能で、江戸時代から明治まで活躍した送風装置の仕組みを自らの手で感じることができます。さらに、刃を落とした日本刀を持つ体験も可能で、武具の重みや当時の戦士の体力を実感できるユニークな試みです。

(Translated by Google) Even before modern steelmaking became popular in the Meiji era, iron was made using iron sand. Since iron production requires not only the raw material iron sand but also a large amount of charcoal, this area, where timber can be secured from the extensive forests, was suitable for iron production. This technology is still passed down today, and high-quality steel used for swords and other weapons is produced. This museum exhibits ancient ironmaking techniques and tools, as well as cutlery made all over the country using steel from this area. Perhaps because it was a weekday, there were very few visitors, but there were many exhibits that can only be seen here, making it a very fulfilling museum. (Original) 明治時代に近代製鉄が普及する以前から、砂鉄を利用した製鉄が行われていました。 原料の砂鉄だけでなく、多くの木炭を必要とするため、広い山林から木材を確保できるこの地が、製鉄に適していたようです。 現在もその技術が継承され、刀剣などに利用する高級鋼が生産されています。 この博物館では、古くからの製鉄の技法や道具、ここの鋼を材料として全国で作られた刃物製品などが展示されています。 平日だったためか、来訪者はほとんどいませんでしたが、ここでしか見られない展示物が多くあり、充実した博物館だと思います。

(Translated by Google) I stepped on a tatara! A place where you can learn all about traditional Japanese iron-making techniques. You can also see the actual tamahagane steel, which appears in Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. It was empty (lol), so I was able to take my time looking around, and I was particularly moved by the words of Yoshisuke Ayukawa. This is what ambition should be like. (Original) たたらを踏んできた！ 日本の伝統的製鉄技術を一通り勉強できる場所。 鬼滅の刃にも出てくる「玉鋼(たまはがね)」の実物も見られる。 ガラガラだった(笑)ので、ゆっくりじっくり見学でき、中でも鮎川義介氏の言葉に感動を受けた。志とはこうあるべきなのだろう。

(Translated by Google) This museum is located in Yasugi City. You can learn about the history of tatara iron smelting. It's quite interesting as it also has exhibits such as Japanese swords and iron sand, the raw material for iron. The admission fee is very cheap at 310 yen. There aren't many exhibits, but it's reasonable as you can also participate in hands-on activities. I guess it's reasonable because it's a public facility. It also seems to have a rest room and library. The view of the ocean from the window was beautiful. One visit is probably enough. (Original) 安来市内にある博物館です。たたら製鉄に関する歴史が学べます。日本刀とか、鉄の原料となる砂鉄なども展示されているので中々楽しいと思います。入場料は310円と激安です。 それほど展示物が多いわけではありませんが、体験などもできるので妥当だと思います。公共施設なので安くできているのでしょう。 休憩室や図書館も併設されているようです。窓の外から海が見えて綺麗でした。一度行けば十分かな。

very small but the architecture is art itself. the main station for those who goes to the adachi museum of art. some sculptures about the folk dance and loach.

Small train station most commonly used by travelers when accessing Adachi Museum of Art. Lockers available. There's also a pretty interesting display of quirky clay figurines. Lots of information about local culture so even if you mistimed your arrival with the shuttle bus to the museum, you wouldn't be bored.

Nice small station. Coffee shop and a few local items for shopping.

(Translated by Google) It's an unmanned ticket gate, so touch your IC card. If you have a black ticket on the back, you can just ride. Inside the station building, the wooden ceiling is high and Yasugi-bushi music is flowing. The waiting area is spacious, and the souvenir shop and snack stand are compactly arranged, making it quite comfortable. The second floor was a gallery. Restrooms, coin lockers, bicycle rentals, and mailboxes are on the left after exiting. The free shuttle bus stop for the Adachi Museum of Art is on the right side of the exit, number 2. Capacity is 25 people. If you plan on using the return bus, be sure to get a timed ticket at the entrance to the Adachi Museum of Art. It is possible to change the time. There don't seem to be any convenience stores around. (Original) 無人改札なのでICカードをタッチします。裏の黒い券の場合はそのまま乗るようです。 駅舎内は木組みの天井が高く、安来節が流れています。 待ち合いも広く、お土産売り場軽食スタンドもコンパクトにまとまっていてなかなか居心地がよい。2階はギャラリーになっていました。 お手洗い、コインロッカー、レンタサイクル、郵便ポストは出口出て左手。 足立美術館への無料シャトルバス乗り場は出口右手②番。定員は25名。復路のバスも利用するなら足立美術館入り口で利用する時間のチケットを手に入れておこう。時間の差し替えは可能。 周辺にコンビニはないようです。

(Translated by Google) The station is small, with a small platform, but the interior is quite unique. There's a souvenir shop on the right after exiting the platform, and toilets and lockers are on the left after exiting the main gate. While the station is small, the Yakumo train stops there, and there's a free shuttle bus to the Ashikaga Museum of Art. It's located at Bus Stop 2 near the main gate, with 17 buses running daily, making it very convenient to get to the Ashikaga Museum of Art. (Original) 車站不大檯小小一個站內裝潢頗具特色，出月台後右手邊有販賣伴手禮；出站大門後左手邊有廁所及置物櫃。本站雖不大但八雲號列車會停靠，且有足利美術館無料接駁巴士，位於車站大門旁2號巴士站，每天有17班巴士，去足利美術館相當方便。

(Translated by Google) September 28, 2025 I used this station to go to the Adachi Museum of Art. I had no idea that this was the birthplace of the famous party trick, loach scooping. I was familiar with the Yasugi-bushi (or "Yasugi"? "Yasuki"?) song, but I finally understood it after seeing the cute ornaments in front of the station and the loach tank inside. It's a convenient station for those visiting the Adachi Museum of Art, with a tourist information center, a shop, and a small restaurant. (Original) 2025/9/28 足立美術館に行く為に利用しました。 まさか宴会芸で有名なドジョウすくいの発祥地とは知りませんでした。 安来節（やすぎ？やすき？）は知っていましたが駅前の可愛いオブジェや駅中のドジョウの水槽で遅まきながら分かりました。 観光案内所、売店、小さい食事処も有って足立美術館利用者には便利な駅です。

(Translated by Google) We used the bus on a Sunday in November, when Bakebake was popular, to head to the Adachi Museum of Art. A man dressed as a loach scooper gave us a thorough tour and made us laugh with his commentary while we waited for the bus. We even got some candy 🍬 You can really feel the effort they put into tourism, and it makes you want to support them! I'd like to come back in a different season. Thank you very much. (Original) ばけばけが流行る11月の日曜に足立美術館に向かうために利用しました。 どじょうすくいの格好をした方が丁寧に案内と、バスを待つ間に解説でみんなを笑わせてくれました。飴もいただきました🍬 観光に力を入れているのが感じられて、応援したくなります！また違う季節にも来てみたいと思いました。ありがとうございました。

Yonago Castle Ruins is about a 20-minute walk from the base, climbing uneven stone steps that aren’t too challenging. The castle keep is just a flat area at the summit with a pavilion, offering views of Yonago, Sakaiminato, and even distant Mount Daisen. It’s worth a look if you have ample time, but skippable if your schedule is tight.

Impressive ruins very close to town and the route from the station to the ruins goes through many historical building and sights. There are many stone steps to get up to the ruins, but there are bamboo poles at the base for you to use if you like. Return once you come down from the top. It would be lovely in Sakura season, but it was also nice in autumn. At the top there are benches and an undercover seating area. There are info guides and maps. It’s 10- 15 mins to get up, depending how “stair fit” you are. You can descend a different way if you wish.

You can climb the little hill in about 10 minutes from Minatoyama park. There are some signs in English when you reach the top, but nothing during the hike. The view is beautiful, especially during the cherry blossom season.

The weather wasn't great the week I stayed in Yonago, so I couldn't see Daisen from the top of the ruins. But it was still a great view, and a nice little hike. Lots of interesting bugs at the top, too. And wasps and mosquitoes, which weren't so great.

You will mesmerize by the view of Yonago city. At one side there is Mt. Daisen opposite to it there will be sunset view. Lake and seashore all over gives you very good vibes about nature. Small trek to mountain. Just follow steps. You will love this place. Carry your headphones as you will love to stay here long listening your favourite picks.

It's neither a leisure walk nor a difficult climb to the ruins. There are bamboo sticks at the entrance to the ruins and remember to get one when you set off. The view on the top is magnificent and well worth all the effort climbing uphill.

A nice place to go for a climb if your interested in Japanese history. There is some religious statues that have been restored in such a amateur way it is comical.

Tricky bustards. Bring some food you didn't ordered and put it in the bill even you rejected it.

Good food

ok

(Translated by Google) I stopped by for lunch on a business trip to Yasugi~♫ fault? We were having lunch ♫ next to Yasugi Station. And the main store! When I come here for work, I leave the station and go to the left, so I missed it (lol) I've had many dinners with me on business trips to San'in, but this is my first time having lunch there♫ There were many business travelers and locals in the large box. When I look at the menu, I get confused ♫ Is it seafood? Is it meat? With seafood! ``Sashimi Funamori Set Meal'' ♫ A large serving of rice. My companion had seafood bowl. You can order using the touch panel. The atmosphere makes me want to drink ♫ Funamori is here! Obon is huge! In addition to the boatload, it comes with fried horse mackerel and chawanmushi! It's gorgeous ♫ The sashimi is fresh and the fried horse mackerel is crispy. A small bowl on a boat...I thought it was salted fish, but it turned out to be pickled firefly squid! This is one more bowl of rice, but if you have a large serving of rice, it will balance out perfectly with these side dishes. The clerk was nervous. It must be difficult for a hall to spin this wide space! A satisfying set meal! Next time I'll go with meat. I'll come again ♫ Thank you very much! Thank you for the meal ♫ (Original) 安来出張のランチでおじゃましました〜♫ あら？ランチやってたのですねー♫安来駅の隣で。しかも本店！仕事で来ると出発は駅を出て左へ行くので見逃してました（笑） 山陰出張の晩餐ではかなりお世話になっておりますがランチはお初です♫結構な大箱に同じく出張者、地元の方が大勢入っておりました。 メニューを見ると迷いますー♫海鮮か？肉か？海鮮で！「さしみ舟盛り定食」で♫ご飯大で。同行者は海鮮丼を。タッチパネルでオーダー出来ます。雰囲気飲みたくなります♫ 舟盛り登場！お盆がデカい！舟盛りの他にアジフライと茶碗蒸しが付いてます〜！豪華です♫お刺身は鮮度良く、アジフライはサックリです。舟盛りに小鉢が・・・塩辛と思ったらホタルイカの沖漬けでした！これでご飯もう１杯ですがご飯を大盛りにするとこれらのおかずらとのバランスが丁度良いですねー。 店員さんはキビッとしておりました。この広さを回すホールさん大変そうですね！ 満足の定食です！次回は肉系で行きます。また来ます♫ありがとうございました！ご馳走様でしたー♫

(Translated by Google) I've been to izakayas in various locations, but this was my first time at the main branch in Yasugi during lunch hours. I ordered soba noodles and a shrimp and squid tempura set. The soba noodles were okay, but the tempura was very watery? Oily? It lacked the crispiness that's the hallmark of tempura. (The fried chicken I ordered with it was crispy, though...) But what bothered me most was the service. I ordered via the touchscreen, but there seemed to be a communication error, and my order didn't go through properly. While I understand this is possible, even when I told the staff, their response was so unsatisfying that it made me think they weren't very good at using the touchscreen. They simply said, "We'll check," and I waited, not understanding what was going on. Then, the food arrived as if nothing had happened. If there's an error, I think an explanation and apology are essential (most customers will understand). No matter how much tea or coffee they offer, it's a negative experience overall. I think it would be a good idea to reconfirm the significance of opening a lunch service at the main store, which is not available at other stores. The ideal situation would be to provide a low-threshold experience for customers and encourage them to return during the evening hours, but for me it had the opposite effect. I got the impression that the company's ideals, such as its efforts to promote children's cafeterias, were not being met. (Original) 居酒屋利用としては各地で利用したことありますが、初めて安来の本店とランチ営業で利用させていただきました。 お蕎麦と大海老＆イカ天ぷらセットを注文しまして、蕎麦はまずまずだったものの、天ぷらは水分？油分？が非常に多く、天ぷらの醍醐味であるサクサク感が皆無でした。(一緒に頼んだ唐揚げはサクサクでしたが・・) そして何より気になったのがサービス面です。タッチパネル注文なのですが通信エラーが発生していたのか、注文がうまく通らなかったです。そのこと自体はあり得ることだと思いますが、店員さんに伝えても、こちらがタッチパネルを使いこなせていないと思わせるような不快な対応で、「確認します」と言われたきり、状況が分からないまま待っていると、何事もなかったかのように料理が運ばれてきました。 何かエラーがあった場合には、状況説明とお詫びが鉄則かと思います(だいたいのお客は納得します)。いくらお茶やコーヒーなどサービスがあろうが、総じてマイナスな心情になります。 本店で、他店舗では実施されていないランチ営業をやる意義がなにか再確認した方がいいかと思いました。客側の敷居が低い状況で体験してもらい、夜営業時にリピートしてもらうのが理想な気がしますが、私には真逆に作用しました。PRされていた子ども食堂への取り組みなど企業の理想に、現場が追いついていない印象を受けました。

(Translated by Google) This was my first visit to the main store in Yasugi in over 20 years. This time, I chose the katsudon during lunch hours. It was a little disappointing as I had a good impression of it in the past. The flavor direction was good, but it was too strong for my taste. I thought the katsu was overcooked. The amount of rice may also be a little small for younger people. (Original) 安来の本店へは20年以上ぶりに来店。今回は昼営業でカツ丼を選択。昔の印象が良かっただけにやや残念。味の方向性はいいのですが、自分には濃すぎました。カツはあがり過ぎと思いました。 ご飯の量も若い人にはやや少ないかも知れません。

(Translated by Google) I stopped by while waiting for the train after visiting the Adachi Museum of Art, and it was a really delicious and cheap restaurant. I will definitely visit again next time I stop by Yasugi Station. (Original) 아다치 미술관을 방문하고 나서 기차를 기다리는 시간 중 들렸는데, 정말 맛있고 저렴한 식당이었다. 다음에 야스기 역에 들릴 일이 있다면 꼭 다시 방문할 것

(Translated by Google) I dropped by on my motorcycle on August 9, 2025, around 11:20 AM. I was confused, not really understanding what the recommendations were or how to order, but I found out that the standard number of soba noodles is 1, so I ordered four, a tempura platter, and a non-alcoholic option. The soba noodles had a great flavor, and the broth is poured directly onto each one. It's thick, so I followed the advice to eat them in small portions. It was summer, so I was sweating, and the broth helped me replenish my salt intake, which really helped me feel refreshed. The tempura had a light, crispy batter—a new oil. The ingredients didn't harden, allowing the flavor and texture to shine through. Delicious! The soba soup was served in a teacup. It had just the right thickness, so I added a little of the thick broth and asked for a refill. I was so happy. While I was taking a break, the chef and his mother spoke to me. We were worried about rain at the local fireworks festival, and that there were fewer night stalls... The mother told us that the vacant lot next door was once a bank built with British bricks, which turned a beautiful vermilion color when wet, and how the bricks were going to be discarded, so the neighbors started taking them home little by little. She told us fascinating stories, from the Taisho era when the bank was built to the present day. This is the true joy of traveling. It was a very precious and enjoyable time. On our way back, both of them came outside and told us to be careful. We left the restaurant feeling refreshed. Next time, I'd like to try the kakiage (tempura). I hope you and your mother are staying healthy.☺️ Thank you for the meal.😋 (Original) 2025.8.9 11:20頃、バイクで訪ねました。 おすすめと頼み方がよく判らなかったのでまごまごしていると、割子の枚数注文が標準的とのことでしたので4枚注文+天ぷら盛り合わせ+ノンアルにしました。 お蕎麦は風味が良く、１枚１枚に直接汁をかけるそうで、濃いので少しずつというアドバイスの通りにしました。夏で汗かいたので汁で塩分補給できたので身体が整いました。 天ぷらは衣がサクサクで軽い、新しい油ですね。 食材も硬くならずに風味や食感が生きています。 美味い‼️ 蕎麦湯は湯呑みに入ってくるスタイル。 程よいとろみで濃い汁を少し入れつつ、おかわり。とても幸せ。 ひと息ついていると、大将とお母さんが話しかけてくださいました。近所の花火大会だけど雨が心配、夜店の出店が少なくなっていることとか…お母さんは隣の更地がかつてイギリスのレンガで造られた銀行であった事、雨に濡れると綺麗な朱色に発色する事、そのレンガが廃棄になるというので近所の人が少しずつ持ち帰った事とか、建造当時の大正時代から現代に至るまで楽しい話を聞かせて頂きました。これぞ旅の醍醐味。 とても貴重で楽しい時間でした。 帰りはお二人とも外に出てきてくださって、 気をつけてねと声をかけてくださいました。 清々しい気持ちでお店を後にしました。 次はかき揚げ食べたいなぁー 大将もお母さんもお元気でお過ごしください☺️ ごちそうさまでした😋

(Translated by Google) This is a soba restaurant that only Japanese locals go to. It's about a 7-minute walk from Yasugi Station, so I happened to stop by while waiting for my train, and everything from the atmosphere to the food was delicious. There was only a Japanese menu, so I ordered the food recommended after looking at the Google reviews and photos, and it was delicious. The main menu, soba, is soba mixed with soy sauce and is light yet very delicious. The fried food that we ordered together is expensive, but it is crispy and very delicious, so I highly recommend it!! I was curious at the end, so I ordered the soup with soup, but it was a bit mediocre, so I recommend eating soba and tempura. (Original) 일본 현지인들만 가는 소바 맛집예요. 야스기역에서 도보로 7분 정도라 기차시간 기다릴 겸 우연히 들렸는데 분위기부터 음식까지 넘 맛있었어요. 일본어 메뉴 밖에 없어서 추천음식이랑 구글 리뷰 사진 보며 주문했는데 넘 맛있었네요. 메인 메뉴인 소바는 간장에 비벼먹는 소바인데 담백하면서도 매우 맛있고 같이 주문한 튀김은 가격은 비싸지만 바삭하면서 엄청 맛있어서 강추!! 마지막에 궁금해서 국물있는 것도 주문해봤는데 이건 좀 그냥 그래서 추천 소바랑 튀김 드시는 걸 추천드립니다.

(Translated by Google) June 2025 I visited the restaurant at 14:00, just before closing time, on my way back from the Adachi Museum of Art. Although it was close to closing time, they welcomed me. The interior of the restaurant, which was converted from an old house, has a nice atmosphere, and it feels like you are visiting an old house. The recommended menu item is the warikosoba, which you can choose between plain soba or with grated yam, and you can choose the number of pieces from three. I also ordered the tempura because I heard it was delicious, but when I told my wife that she is allergic to shrimp and crab, they suggested that we have kakiage instead, so we ordered that and a rolled sushi roll. The wariko soba is served in a small red bowl, and the broth is poured directly onto it. I was told that the broth is quite thick, so I should pour it little by little. The soba is handmade and has a nice aroma. I preferred the one with grated yam. The rolled sushi roll is freshly baked and hot, not too salty, and has a strong broth and is delicious. The tempura is also freshly fried and crispy, and delicious. The prices are reasonable and there is a parking lot at the back of the store. (Original) 2025年6月 足立美術館からの帰りに閉店間際の14:00に伺いました。閉店間際でしたが快く受け入れていただきました。 古民家を改造した店内は雰囲気がよく、古いお宅に訪問しているかのような雰囲気です。 メニューほお勧めは割こそばで蕎麦そのままかとろろがかかったものかを選べ、枚数も３枚から選べます。そのほかに天ぷらが美味しいとのことで頼みましたが妻がエビカニアレルギーと伝えるとかき揚げにしましょうかとの提案がありそれと出汁巻を注文しました。 割子蕎麦は小さな赤い器に蕎麦が盛られており、その中に汁を直接かけていただきます。汁が濃いめなので少しづつかけてくださいと教えられいただきました。蕎麦は手打ちで香りがよく美味しいです。とろろがかかったものの方が自分は好きでした。 出汁巻はは焼き立てで熱々、しょっぱ過ぎずダシが効いており美味しい。 天ぷらも揚げたてサクサクで美味しい。 お値段もリーズナブルです。 店の奥に駐車場があります。

(Translated by Google) I stopped by on a trip after the Obon holidays. The recommended bowl is the regular size, with three to four pieces apparently. I had the regular bowl and two pieces of mountain yam. The soup is thicker than other restaurants, so an amount about the same as that of mixed soba noodles was sufficient. There is also parking for three cars nearby. (Original) お盆明けの旅行途中で立ち寄りました。 割り子がおすすめなようです、標準は３～４枚とのこと。 普通の割り子と山芋を２枚づついただきました。 他店とくらべて汁は濃いめなので和え蕎麦ぐらいの量で充分でした。 すぐ近くに３台分の駐車場もあります。

(Translated by Google) The raw egg topping on the potato soba here is delicious and highly recommended. When I first tried the Wariko soba here, I thought, "What a spicy soba with soy sauce!" but the regular soba is delicious. The restaurant is within walking distance of Yasugi Station. This is a recommended restaurant for those who want to taste Izumo soba around Yasugi Station. (Original) ここのいもかけ蕎麦の生卵トッピングは美味でお勧めです。このお店で初めて割子そばを食べた時は『なんて醤油からいそばなんだ！』と思いましたが、普通のそばは美味しいです。お店は安来駅から徒歩圏内です。安来駅周辺で出雲そばを味わいたい方にはお勧めのお店です。

(Translated by Google) A soothing soba restaurant. I want to go there when I'm tired. The lady's personality and the owner's careful work make it a comfortable place. The interior has a Showa-era feel. I hope they keep it going for a long time. (Original) 癒される蕎麦屋。疲れたら行きたくなる。おばさまの人柄と店主の丁寧なお仕事が心地よく。昭和初期のような内装。 ずっと続けていってもらいたい。

(Translated by Google) I arrived a little after opening time at 10 o'clock. I had kamaage soba and a tempura platter. It was my first time trying kamaage soba. The noodles were thin and soft, and I prefer them to be chewy. The aroma seems like it would be enjoyable in new soba season. The tempura broth is excellent, not interfering with the flavor of the ingredients even when dipped in, and the batter was crispy and fried to perfection. The tempura is a must-try at this restaurant. (Original) 開店時間10過ぎに訪問 釜揚げそば、天ぷら盛合せをいだだきましたよ。 釜揚げそばは初めて食べます。 細麺で軟らかいのでコシがある方が好き。 新蕎麦の季節だと香りが愉しめそうデス。 天ぷら汁は漬けて食べても素材の味や風味を邪魔しない名優、衣はサクサクでカラッと揚げてあり秀逸デスデス。 コチラのお店で天ぷらは外せませんね。

Its not so crowded the food was great too

Big menu size, food was delicious, ordered garlic steak with beans, shoestring/regular french fry plate and garlic toast. Menu had no english descriptions but had pictures next to everything. Will eat here again.

This place is getting a bit worn. It is open later in the evenings and has a drink and salad bar. I came here with friends after a job.

(Translated by Google) It's delicious no matter what you eat. The refreshing hamburger steak is meaty, and the steak is thick. There are pros and cons, but it's good that it's rare and you can adjust the way it's cooked later. There was also wine, and it had a strong taste, so I disinfected my stomach with alcohol and enjoyed the raw meat! (Original) 何食べても美味しい。爽やか的なハンバーグは肉肉しく、ステーキも分厚い。賛否はあるが、レアレアしていて自分で後から焼き方を調整できるのが良い。ワインもあり、味が強い感じだったのでアルコールで胃を消毒しつつ、生焼け肉を楽しめる！

(Translated by Google) Vegetables → Meat → Rice → Dessert I thoroughly enjoyed it. Salad bar, drink bar, rice, soup, fruit. It was also fun to create your own original soup! Put some corn into a soup cup, add the corn soup, and... [Corn soup with lots of ingredients!!] It was the perfect temperature and easy to drink (lol). (Original) 野菜→肉→ご飯→デザート しっかり楽しめました サラダバー、ドリンクバー、ご飯、スープ、果物 オリジナルを作っていただけるのも楽しい♩ スープカップに、コーンを適量入れ、そこにコーンスープを入れると… 【具だくさんコーンスープ！！】 適温になって飲みやすかった(笑)

(Translated by Google) They had one in Matsue, but it disappeared before I knew it, so I went all the way to Yonago. Their big hamburger steaks are amazing! 🍖 And the salad bar is amazing! 🥗 I had a second helping of corn soup, and now I'm full! 💕 (Original) 松江にもあったんだけど いつの間にか無くなっていたので 米子まで遠征 なんと言っても大俵ハンバーグ🍖 そしてサラダバー🥗 コーンスープ🌽をお代わりして お腹いっぱいです💕

(Translated by Google) I went there for the first time in a while because I wanted to eat something from the fair, but the staff were very polite and the food was delicious. (Original) フェアの食べたくて久しぶりに行ったけど店員の接客も丁寧だったし美味しかった

(Translated by Google) The atmosphere inside the store is good and the taste is excellent! ! ! The presentation was also beautiful. The owner is friendly and will answer any questions you may have. I want to go again. (Original) 店内の雰囲気が良く、味も絶品！！！ 盛り付けも綺麗でした。店主は気さくで何でも聞いたら答えてくれます。また行きたいです。

(Translated by Google) I came to Shimane for my wedding anniversary trip. We had a dinner of lobster and fillet steak at FUKUMOTO, which has a reputation for being delicious. Everything from the appetizers to the main dishes was absolutely delicious. Lastly, since it was our wedding anniversary, we had a surprise dessert, and my wife cried with joy. It was the best restaurant in terms of food, service, customer service, etc. I would like to go again when I go to Shimane. Thank you for the wonderful memories. (Original) 結婚記念日の旅行で島根に来ました。 美味しいと評判のFUKUMOTOさんでオマール海老とヒレステーキのディナーをいただきました。 前菜からメインディッシュまで全てが最高に美味しかったです。 最後に結婚記念日という事でサプライズのデザートがあり妻も泣いて喜んでました。 食事、サービス、接客等、全てにおいて最高のお店でした。 島根に行った時はまた行きたいと思います。 素敵な思い出をありがとうございました。

Nice chef, with high quality of food, and cook the food with passion and seriousness

(Translated by Google) Excellent experience! Every detail is perfect! During the dining process, you can feel their attentiveness and pursuit of perfection in details. We came from Hong Kong for a few days and felt their warm hospitality and left with wonderful memories. The beef was absolutely perfect and very delicious! It is recommended to make a reservation (Original) 體驗極佳！ 各項細節都很完美！ 在用餐過程體驗到他們的用心，在細節上追求完美。 我們從香港來旅遊幾天，感受到他們熱情的招待，留下美好的回憶。 牛肉絕對是完美，十分美味！ 建議先訂座

(Translated by Google) The other day, we went here to celebrate our wedding anniversary✨ The soup, appetizer platter, turban shell with firefly squid sauce, wagyu beef sushi, sauteed rockfish, the main dish of wagyu beef fillet steak, grilled vegetables, rice cooked in a clay pot, and even dessert were all absolutely delicious😊🎵 Not only was the food wonderful, but the service and hospitality of the restaurant staff was also wonderful✨ (Original) 先日､結婚記念日のお祝いで伺いました✨ スープ､前菜盛り合わせ､サザエにホタルイカソース､和牛のお寿司､メバルのソテー､️メインの和牛ヒレステーキに焼き野菜､土鍋の炊き込みご飯､デザートまでどれも最高に美味しかったです😊🎵 食事だけでなくお店の方の接客やもてなしも素敵でした✨

(Translated by Google) We had dinner here to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. 14,000 yen per person course. The price is by no means cheap, but considering the contents, it was a reasonable value for money. 🥢【Appetizer platter】 The appetizers, beautifully arranged on a transparent glass plate, are like art. The canapés topped with meat miso and nuts are rich but not heavy, and are appetizing from the start. The tomato and white fish mousse is smooth and accented with a refreshing acidity. The small bowl of cold dishes is also refreshing, and we were very satisfied from the start. 🐚【Turban shell in a pot】 The turban shells, served with their shells, have a fun crunchy texture and the aroma of the sea fills your mouth. It goes well with the accompanying vegetables, and it was a dish that allowed you to fully enjoy the flavor of the sea. 🥩【Wagyu beef nigiri】 Melting wagyu beef with just a touch of salt and fragrant sesame. The sweetness of the fat that spreads softly the moment you put it in your mouth and the deliciousness of the red meat are exquisite, making it a truly "memorable nigiri". The pickled ginger also has a refined taste. 🍲【Cold soup】 A corn-based soup with a gentle sweetness. The toppings are floating nuts and flower petals, making it look and smell gorgeous. It's not too rich, and it plays the role of a perfect "rest" before the next dish. 🥃【Highball】 The refreshing highball goes perfectly with the food. It matches both meat and fish dishes, and the taste is not boring until the end. 🥩【Teppan Wagyu steak】 The thickly cut meat is cooked to the perfect degree, with a crispy surface and rare and soft inside. I felt happy with the meat juice that spread with every bite. The salad was also crunchy and well-balanced. 🍚 [Clay Pot Rice] This may be the true star of this course. The white rice cooked in a clay pot was served at the same time as the steak, which was the perfect timing. It was plump and sweet, and when I ate it with the meat, I truly felt that it was worth coming here for. 🐟 [Fish dish] The pan-fried white fish had a fragrant skin and was fluffy and soft. The balance with the mushroom and zucchini sauce was also excellent, making it a dish that seemed to take the best of both Japanese and Western cuisines. 🍰 [Dessert] It looked surprisingly gorgeous. Citrus jelly served in an ice-like bowl and fluffy matcha castella. Garnished with gold leaf and rose petals, it was like a plate of blessings. However, it would have been perfect if hot coffee had been served at this point... 🎉 And what moved me most of all was the surprise flowers for our anniversary. A bouquet was brought to our table with a message card that read, "Happy 10th Wedding Anniversary." This kind of heartfelt presentation really shows the "kindness of the people" at this restaurant. 🌸The quality of the food, the service, and the atmosphere were all special, and I'm really glad we chose it for our milestone anniversary. It's a restaurant I'd definitely like to return to at another milestone occasion. (Original) 結婚10周年の記念に、こちらでディナーをいただきました。 1人14,000円のコース。価格は決して安くはありませんが、内容を考えると納得の適正コスパでした。 🥢【前菜盛り合わせ】 透明なガラス皿に美しく並べられた前菜は、まるでアート。 中でもナッツ入りの肉味噌をのせたカナッペは、濃厚ながらもしつこくなく、最初から食欲をそそる一品。トマトと白身魚のムースはなめらかで、爽やかな酸味がアクセントになっていました。小鉢の冷菜も清涼感があり、スタートから大満足。 🐚【サザエの壺焼き風】 殻ごと盛りつけられたサザエは、コリコリとした歯ごたえが楽しく、磯の香りが口いっぱいに広がります。添えられた野菜との相性もよく、海の旨味をしっかり味わえる一皿でした。 🥩【和牛の握り】 とろけるような和牛に、ほんの少しの塩と香ばしいごま。 口に入れた瞬間にふわっと広がる脂の甘みと、赤身の旨さが絶妙で、まさに“記憶に残る握り”でした。ガリも上品な味で◎。 🍲【冷製スープ】 とうもろこしをベースにした優しい甘みのスープ。トッピングにナッツや花びらが浮かべられ、見た目も香りも華やか。濃厚すぎず、次の料理に向けてちょうど良い「休符」のような役割を果たしていました。 🥃【ハイボール】 すっきりとしたハイボールは料理との相性抜群。肉料理にも魚料理にもマッチして、最後まで飽きさせない味わいでした。 🥩【鉄板和牛ステーキ】 分厚くカットされたお肉は、表面がカリッと、中はレアで柔らかい理想的な焼き加減。 噛むごとにじゅわっと広がる肉汁に、幸せを感じました。サラダもシャキシャキでバランスが良いです。 🍚【土鍋炊きごはん】 このコースの真の主役かもしれません。土鍋で炊かれた白ごはんが、ステーキと同時に提供されるという最高のタイミング。ふっくら甘みがあって、お肉と一緒に食べると「このために来て良かった」と心から思えました。 🐟【魚料理】 白身魚のポワレは皮目が香ばしく、ふわっとやわらか。 きのことズッキーニのソースとのバランスも素晴らしく、和と洋のよいとこ取りのような一皿でした。 🍰【デザート】 見た目に驚くほど華やか。 氷のような器に盛られた柑橘ゼリーと、ふんわり抹茶カステラ。金箔とバラの花びらが添えられていて、まるで祝福のプレートのよう。 ただ、ここで温かいコーヒーが一緒に出てくれば完璧だったかも…。 🎉 そして何より感動したのが、記念日のお花のサプライズ。 「Happy 10th Wedding Anniversary」と書かれたメッセージカード付きのブーケを、テーブルまで運んできてくださいました。 こういう心のこもった演出に、こちらのお店の“人の良さ”がにじみ出ています。 🌸お料理のクオリティ、サービス、空間すべてが特別で、節目の記念日に選んで本当に良かったです。 また必ず、節目の時に帰ってきたいと思えるお店でした。

(Translated by Google) We celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary. They have both counter seating and private rooms. All the food was so delicious my jaw dropped! 😍 The wine 🍷 goes well with it, but I also recommend the sake. ✨ I ended up enjoying my favorite Chiyomusubi midway through. I also bought a hamburger steak as a souvenir. I'd definitely like to come back for lunch. (Original) 15周年の結婚記念日で利用させていただきました。 カウンターと個室もあります。 お料理はどれもおしくて頬が落ちそう😍 ワイン🍷も進みますが日本酒もおすすめです✨ 途中から大好きな千代むすびの強力をいただきました。 おみやげにハンバーグも購入しました。 またランチでいきたいと思います。

There is an exhibition about birds in the sanctuary, which also comes with telescopes to observe the birds in the area. The mister in the observation room is super kind, easy-going, and patient. He is also very patient in teaching people how to use the transcripts telescopes. The lady at the reception is one of the most welcoming people I've ever met in the trip too!

Many telescopes are set up overlooking the waterbird reserve, with information cards attached so that you can learn the names of the birds you find. Lots of other information inside; a microscope to look at insects, etc, artworks from local children, bird costumes, etc .

Waterbirds congregate here during Autumn from Russia to swim & relax.

If you are a birder, this place is a must see. And even if you aren't a birder it is a great place to spend some time. You can comfortably watch birds with the telescopes indoors AND Mt Daisen is in the background! The guides are extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. They gave me a checklist to mark the birds I saw. There were interesting displays and even bird costumes for kids and grownups too. I arrived too late to see it all, but I will certainly go again. Next time I will give myself plenty of time to really enjoy the experience. A truly pleasant experience.

One of the best deals in Japan. Go to the visitor centre where they have quite a few binoculars set up and helpful staff point out where to look. I would have missed the Siberian swans otherwise.

Good amount of water fowl, definitely lives up to its name. Costs to enter the building itself 310 yen for adults, but they have big viewing binoculars, places to sit, etc. I didn't go in as I was in the mood for wandering around, but I think it'll be worth it to go in if you want to get a better view of spoonbills, Kingfishers, a variety of ducks and the odd bird of prey.

Great but closed 29-31st December.

(Translated by Google) When I passed by the park for the first time in a while, I saw cluster amaryllis flowers in full bloom on the banks of the Hakuta River that flows by the park, so I parked my car at the park and walked to see them. I think I've been here several times during this time in the past, but I was surprised because I hadn't noticed clusters of red spider lilies growing in clusters. (Original) 久しぶりに近くを通ったら、公園のそばを流れる伯太川の川岸に、彼岸花が満開になっていたので、公園に車を停めて歩いて見に行きました。 過去にもこの時期に何回か通ったことはあるとおもうけど、彼岸花が群生しているのは気が付かなかったのでビックリしました。

(Translated by Google) I went to support my junior high school soft tennis team at the prefectural tournament. To be honest, the parking lot is too small. For big tournaments, I recommend going early in the morning. There is sufficient parking for regular practices and practice games. The tennis court itself was in very good condition. The men's restroom was almost Japanese style. There is also a multi-purpose toilet for both men and women. There was a parking lot for wheelchairs. However, the concrete wall is a little high, and there is a step in front of the wall, and there are stairs to get to the audience seats, so it is difficult for people in wheelchairs or with mobility issues to participate in sports or watch the event. I thought it was a facility. (Original) 中学のソフトテニスの県総体で応援に行きました。 はっきり言って、駐車場の規模が小さすぎます。 大きな大会の時は、早朝から行くのをオススメします。 普通の練習、練習試合には充分の駐車場ですが。 テニスコート自体はとても良く整備されていました。 男性トイレは、ほぼ和式でした。 男女兼用多目的トイレも有りました。 車椅子用駐車場ありました。 ただ、コンクリートの壁が少し高いところまで有るのと、壁の直前が段差になっている、観客席に行くのは階段なので、車椅子、足腰に不安がある方のスポーツ参加、観覧には、辛い施設だと思いました。

(Translated by Google) Junior high school students are enjoying playing tennis to the fullest. The weather is nice and it's great for parents to watch! ️I'm in a high stand. It would be even better if the toilets were good. (Original) 中学生が全力でテニスを楽しんでいます。お天気も良くて保護者観戦には最高ですね‼️高い位置にあるスタンドにいます。トイレが良ければなお良いですね。

(Translated by Google) It was a good exercise with just a few hits on one side of the court. It is beautifully maintained. October 10th? Apparently, he won't be able to use it for a few days because of the tournament. I want to go again. (Original) 片面のコートで少し打っただけでいい運動になりました。綺麗に整備されています。10月10日？くらいから数日間大会のためつかえなくなるそうです。また行きたいです。

(Translated by Google) It's Yasugi Sports Park.It's nostalgic.I used to use it for boxing practice 30 years ago. This is a glorious ground that became a champion. You can still use it✨ (Original) 安来運動公園です懐かしいですね🤗30年前ボクシングの練習でよく使ってました。チャンピオンになった輝かしきグランドです。まだまだ使えますね✨

(Translated by Google) The toilets in the administration building were very clean and I felt good. I think it would be nice if the restrooms at the tennis courts were also cleaner. (Original) 管理棟のトイレがきれいに掃除されてて、気持ちよかったです。テニスコートの方のトイレもきれいになるといいと思います。

(Translated by Google) There is a tennis court. It's a shame that although it's spacious, there isn't a place to take a walk or sit and have lunch. (Original) テニスコートがあります。 広いわりに、散歩したり、座ってお弁当などの場所がないのが残念です。

Although they are not all open, they are wonderful.

(Translated by Google) I visited this venue for the first time on April 13, 2024. An area the size of a school playground centered around a windmill Many types of tulips were in full bloom. The flowers are already fully open and will probably be at their peak this weekend. Tulips are also on sale for 70 yen each. There is a parking lot at Hakuta Government Building, which is about 100 meters even when it is full. There are also temporary parking lots in remote areas, so there are quite a lot of parking spaces. It looks like you can park there, but the entrance is quite crowded. When I visited around 10 o'clock, the parking lot was about 2/3 full. By 11:30, it was full. (There is no one to guide you, so you will get stuck in traffic when crossing. (Vehicles on the road were also stopped.) There is a small bench under the windmill. If the weather is nice, I think it would be possible to have a bento box. Basically, you come to the venue and pull it up after finishing your business. I think it's okay. There is only one store in the venue, a manju shop. There is also a Lawson nearby. (Original) 2024年4月13日にこちらの会場には初めて訪れました。 風車を中心に学校の校庭ほどの広さ一面に 多数の種類のチューリップが満開でした。 花はだいぶ開ききっていて、恐らく今週末がピークだと思われます。 チューリップは１本70円で即売もしています。 駐車場は伯太庁舎の駐車場があり、満車でも100ｍほど 離れた場所にも臨時の駐車場があるため、かなりの台数が 停められそうですが、入り口は結構混んでいます。 私が10時頃に訪れた際は駐車場が2/3ほど埋まっていて 11時半には満車状態でした。 （特に誘導の方もいないため、交差する際に渋滞になり 道路を走る車両も停止になっていました） 風車の下に少しだけベンチがあるため 天気が良いとお弁当も可能だと思いますが 基本的には来場して用事が終わったら引き上げるのが 宜しいかと思います。 会場内には売店はまんじゅう屋が１店舗だけありますが 近くにローソンもあります。

(Translated by Google) It is crowded with people during the tulip festival. There are many places where your feet will be muddy, so if you want to carefully select and photograph tulips, it might be a good idea to bring rain boots. It looks like everything will be in full bloom in a few days. (Original) チューリップ祭で賑わってます。 足元がぬかるんでいる所が多いのでしっかりチューリップを選びたい、撮りたい方は長靴持参が良いかもです。 もう数日後には全体が満開になりそう。

(Translated by Google) 2025/4/12 It's crowded with the Tulip Festival. Parking lots are scattered to the south of the town hall, so I think it's better to call out to the guide and receive instructions rather than wandering around. It's more like an on-the-sale event where you can select and buy items rather than viewing them. There are flowers that are about to reach their prime, as well as buds, so it looks like they'll be around for a while. (Original) 2025/4/12チューリップまつりで賑わってます。駐車場は役場から南に点在してますので、ウロウロするより誘導員に声かけて指示を受けた方が良いかと。鑑賞と言うより選んで買い取る即売会のようです。盛りを過ぎようとする花から蕾まで有りましたので今しばらく行けそうです。

(Translated by Google) I went there yesterday😊🌷It seems like the festival is still going on? , a lot of tulips are blooming ♪🌷 Unfortunately it was cloudy and there was a strong wind, but it was crowded with people 😄 They also sell cut flowers (you can remove the whole bulb with a digging stick) for 70 yen each.I bought several kinds of flowers (close to bud), including pink and purple flowers that I couldn't buy before, and I immediately put them in a planter at my house. I planted them 😄 Once the flowers have finished blooming, I will grow the bulbs 🌷 I look forward to it every spring 😊 It's sunny today so I wonder if I can go again...⁉️ (Original) 昨日行ってきました😊🌷祭りは未だのようですが？、チューリップはたくさん咲いてます♪🌷 あいにくの曇天、強風でしたが、沢山の人で賑わってました😄 切花(掘り出し棒で球根ごと取ってOK)販売も1本70円でやってました、以前買えなかったピンク&パープルの花など(蕾状態に近いもの)数種類買って帰り、我が家のプランターに早速植えました😄花が咲き終わったら球根を育てます🌷毎年の春の楽しみです😊 今日は晴れたのでもう一度行ってもいいかな…⁉️

(Translated by Google) Apparently, 500,000 tulips of 100 different varieties are planted here, a spring flower. Many photographers came to take in the colorful tulips. (    ՞⁠ਊ   ՞⁠） There was plenty of parking. There was quite a lot of traffic. It's dangerous to get too engrossed in the tulips! (Original) 春の花チューリップが100種類50万本植えられているそうです。色とりどりのチューリップにカメラマンさんが沢山いらっしゃいました(⁠ ⁠՞⁠ਊ⁠ ⁠՞⁠）⁠ 駐車場も十分にありました。車が結構に往来しています。チューリップにみとれてると危ないですよー

(Translated by Google) This year's 2019 Tulip Festival🌷 is on the 14th. The tulips are already in full bloom. However, due to the stormy weather the day before, the paths are extremely muddy, making it difficult to walk in regular shoes. 😓 You can still admire the beautiful, or rather, adorable, tulips from the sidelines. 😊 You can also buy them for 50 yen each. 😉 The flowers are expected to disappear rapidly by the day after the festival, so be sure to come early... Apparently, this is for the bulb cultivation and other purposes. (Original) 2019　今年のチューリップ祭り🌷は１４日です。 既に満開に近い咲き乱れです。 ただし、前日の荒天が祟り畦道がかなりぬかるんで、普通の靴では歩けない状態😓 周りからでも、じゅうぶんに美しいというか、かわいらしい姿は眺められますけど😊 一本５０円で買い取りも出来ますよ😉 祭りの翌日くらいには、花が一気に減ると思われるので、お早めに…… 球根の育成とかのためだそうです。

(Translated by Google) Gassan Toda Castle is considered one of Japan's five great mountain castles. The flat area just halfway up the castle ruins is called Yamanaka Goten Ruins. It is located about half way up from the foot of the mountain, just before the Nachimagari-no-zaka that goes up to the main enclosure at the top of the mountain. There are only three ways to ascend the castle from the foot of the mountain (Mikomori Exit, Sugaya Exit, and Shioya Exit), and they meet at this Yamanaka Palace, with Toraguchi Gate at Sugaya Exit and Shioya Exit, and Otemon Gate at Mikomori Exit. It must have been an important fort for defense. There is a building called Yamanaka Palace here, and it is thought that the palace was divided into two levels: a flat ground and an upper and lower stone wall, with a large stone wall built on a vast curve. It is presumed that the residence of the castle lord was also located here, and it was probably an important place for the lord and his senior vassals to hold appraisals even in peacetime. If you're walking around the Gassan Tomida Castle ruins, which starts at the roadside station, it's right in the middle, so take a break and get ready for the climb up the Nanamagari Hill! By the way, there is a small parking lot in front of the Yamanaka Goten ruins, so you can start from there and head towards the main enclosure. (Original) 日本の五大山城の一つに数えられる月山富田城。その城跡のちょうど中腹あたりの平坦になった場所が山中御殿跡と呼ばれています。 山頂部にある本丸へと上がる七曲の坂の手前で、麓からは半分くらいのぼったところに位置しています。麓から登城する3つしかない道(御子守口・菅谷口・塩谷口)がこの山中御殿で合流しており、菅谷口・塩谷口には虎口門が、御子守口には大手門が設けられ、防衛上重要な郭だったことでしょう。 ここに山中御殿という建物があり、その御殿は平地と石垣の上下2段に分かれた構造をしていたと考えられており、広大な曲輪に大規模な石垣が築かれています。城主の居館もここにあったと推定され、平時でも領主と重臣が評定を開く重要な場所だったのでしょう。 道の駅スタートの月山富田城跡の散策でしたら、ちょうど中間にあたるところなので、ゆっくり一休して七曲の坂を登るのに備えましょう！ ちなみに山中御殿跡の手前に小さな駐車場があるので、そちらからスタートして本丸を目指すことも出来ます。

(Translated by Google) Gassan-Tomida Castle's Yamanaka Goten (Yamanaka Gotendaira) is the remains of a vast flat area halfway up the castle, and is said to have been the residence of the castle lord at the time. It is said that this palace had a two-tiered structure, with the castle lord's residence on the upper floor and the attached facilities on the lower floor. Excavations have confirmed stone rows that are believed to be the foundation of the building, and also found evidence that it has been renovated several times. Based on the shape of the stone walls and the structure of the entrance/exit, it is assumed that it was continuously renovated from the Sengoku period to the early modern period. This palace site, which covers an area of ​​approximately 3,000 square meters, is also the main defense point within the castle, and is located in an important position where the castle entrances from three sides meet. It is an indispensable ruin when talking about the history of Gassan Tomita Castle as a whole. (Original) 月山富田城の山中御殿（山中御殿平）は、城の中腹にある広大な平地の遺構で、当時城主の居館があった場所とされています。この御殿は上下二段の構造で、上段には城主の館、下段には付属の施設が設けられていたと伝えられています。 発掘調査では建物の基礎と思われる石列が確認され、何度か改修された痕跡も見つかっています。現在は石垣の形状や虎口（出入り口）の構造から、戦国時代から近世にかけて改築され続けたことが推測されています。 広さ約3000平方メートルに及ぶこの御殿跡地は、城内の主要な防御ポイントでもあり、三方からの登城口が合流する重要な位置にあります。月山富田城全体の歴史を語る上で欠かせない遺構です

(Translated by Google) For better or worse, it is nothing more than a castle ruin. Moreover, there is quite a bit of climbing in the mountain castle, so sneakers are recommended, and I think it's better to pass after it rains. The view from the top of the mountain is good, and you can enjoy the cherry blossoms in the surrounding area during the cherry blossom season. (Original) 良くも悪くも城跡でしかない。しかも山城で結構登りますのでスニーカーがお薦めで、雨上がりはパスした方が良いと思います。山頂からの眺めも良く周囲も含め桜シーズンには桜を楽しめます。

(Translated by Google) This is the remains of the Yamanaka Palace of Gassan Toda Castle. It is a fairly large, flat square located halfway up the mountain, a little way from the parking lot. There are guide maps and pamphlets available. (Original) 月山富田城の山中御殿跡になります。駐車場から少し登った中腹あたりにあるかなり広い平らな広場になっていました。案内図やパンフレットが置いてありました。

(Translated by Google) It is a very wide curved area surrounded by a stone wall, and is thought to have been a residential space during peacetime, where residences were lined up. Remains such as the remains of a stone gate, turret platform, and well can be seen. Up to this point, it's a gentle climb from the foot of the mountain, but you'll be shocked at how steep the slope is from here to the castle part of the mountain. (Original) 石垣で囲まれた平時の居住空間で居館が並んでいたのだと思われるたいへん広い曲輪である。 石造りの門の跡や櫓台跡、井戸跡などの遺構が確認できる。 ここまでは麓から緩やかな登りであるが、ここから山上の城部分への傾斜のキツさに愕然とする。

(Translated by Google) This is the palace in front of the main enclosure. There is a parking lot nearby, but there are no vending machines or toilets. Let's finish it at the roadside station at the foot of the mountain. The stone walls and earthworks remain and are quite worth seeing. If you are worried about time or physical strength, this is probably the place for you. (Original) 本丸手前の御殿です 付近に駐車場はありますが自販機、トイレはありませんので 麓の道の駅で済ませておきましょう 石垣や土塁は残っており十分見応えあります 時間や体力に不安のある方はここまででよいかと

(Translated by Google) Shioyaguchi was my favorite place! I want to get caught (๑´∀`๑) Even if it's too well maintained, I don't like it. . . and I climbed up to the main castle. . . The shape of the main enclosure resembles that of Rikami Castle. Horikiri and Ninomaru scenery ☆ The shape of Sannomaru's kuruwa and more! ! It’s Yamashiro! !

(Translated by Google) 2024/6 A temple that is irresistible to girls It was designed so that there was no work that was dependent on the individual. You can come as you please, enjoy yourself as you please, and go home. 14 pieces of simple rice crackers for ¥300 I'm glad I had the chance to taste it. At about 21 yen per piece, it's a bargain. The powdered Jizo statue is apparently famous. There is an attraction where you can paint powder on Jizo. It was all about women because there are many women who are worried about their skin. The old man with his backpack on his back bought an amulet and hurriedly left. (Original) 2024/6 女子にはたまらないであろう寺 属人的な作業がないように工夫されていた。 勝手に来て、勝手に楽しんで帰れる。 14枚入りの素朴なせんべいが¥300 大胆な試食があって味見できて嬉しい。 1枚あたり21円ほどなので、お買い得。 おしろい地蔵が有名らしい。 地蔵さんにおしろいを塗れるアトラクションがある。 肌に悩む女性が多いので、女性ばかりでした。 リュック背負ったオッさんは、お守り買ってそそくさ立ち去ったﾎﾟﾖ

If you have any concerns about your skin, apply powder to the same area of ​​Jizo's face and pray to it and your skin will be completely restored. ••• You can choose from three types of goshuin.

(Translated by Google) There was a parking lot on the roadside, and the location was easy to find. The place to buy talismans was unmanned, but there was a fare box and cashless payment available. The stepping stones are cute in the shape of flowers. The interesting Jizo statue was pure white. The temple is also beautiful and has a historical feel. (Original) 道べりに駐車場もあり、場所も分かりやすかった。御札を買う場所は無人でしたが、料金箱とキャッシュレス決済もできるようになっています。踏み石がお花の形でかわいらしいです。おしろい地蔵真っ白でした。お寺もキレイで歴史を感じます。

(Translated by Google) This temple is famous for its cute ``Oshiroi Jizo''. Pray for beautiful skin by applying powder on the same part of the Jizo statue's face. You can also purchase banknotes at unattended sales. Although it is a small temple, it is well maintained and there are incense sticks and candles that you can use freely. It was a somewhat relaxing temple. (Original) 可愛らしい「おしろい地蔵」で有名なお寺。お地蔵様のお顔の同じ部分におしろいを塗って美肌祈願。無人販売でお札も購入できます。小さなお寺ですが、手入れが行き届き線香やロウソクも「ご自由に…」と。何だかホッコリするお寺でした。

(Translated by Google) I visited in September 2019. It is located right along the river from Tamazukuri Onsen town. It is a temple of the Rinzai sect of Buddhism, Myoshinji, and is famous for its "Oshiroi Jizo" (powdered Jizo)! There are two types of goshuin (stamps) that can be written directly. The person who serves you is an elderly grandmother, but she is very gentle and calm, so she is very nice. There is no parking lot, but Tamazukuriyu Shrine is just before it, so park there and walk about 50 meters. (Original) 2019年9月に訪れました。玉造温泉街から川沿いにすぐの所に有ります。臨済宗妙心寺派の寺院になり「おしろい地蔵」で有名ですね！ 御朱印は直書き対応になり、2種類有ります。また対応されてる方は高齢のおばあちゃんになりますが、物腰がやわらかく、穏やかな方ですので非常に良い感じです。 駐車場は有りませんが、その手前が「玉作湯神社」ですので、そこに駐車されて徒歩で50メートルくらいです。

(Translated by Google) This temple is famous for its Oshiroi Jizo statue. You can choose from three types of goshuin at the shrine office next to the main hall. While waiting, I went to Oshiroi Jizo. Purchase an ema (picture card) for 300 yen, color the area you want to make beautiful with the colored pencils provided, and then apply the powder underneath the Jizo statue with a brush. There were two types of ema: one for the body and one for the face. I thought the powder had a scent that I remember, but it turned out to be baby powder. It almost doesn't stick to stones. Not only this Jizo statue, but other Jizo statues were also painted with powder (lol) I think it's a pretty interesting temple. (Original) おしろい地蔵様で有名なお寺。 御朱印は本堂横の社務所で３種類から選んで頂けます。 待ち時間に、おしろい地蔵へ。 300円で絵馬(絵札)を購入して、綺麗にしたい部分を置いてある色鉛筆で塗り、その後にお地蔵さまの下にあるおしろいを筆で塗ります。 絵馬は、身体用と顔用の２種類がありました。 おしろいは、何か記憶にある香りだと思っていたら、ベビーパウダー。 石にはほぼつきません。 このお地蔵さまだけでなく、他のお地蔵様もおしろいを塗られてました（笑） 中々面白いお寺だと思います。

(Translated by Google) I had the opportunity to apply powder to the Oshiroi Jizo. It is said that long ago, a monk with a birthmark on his face applied powder to the Jizo and prayed, and the birthmark healed completely, which is why the Jizo statue became a popular destination. Two brushes were provided. The powder had a wonderful scent, and I was soothed by the pleasant aroma while making my wish. (Original) おしろい地蔵様におしろいを塗らせていただきました。 その昔、顔にあざのあったお坊様がお地蔵さまにおしろいを塗って祈願したところ、顔にあったあざが綺麗に治ったとのことから信仰され始めたとのことです。 筆は2本用意されていました。 おしろい粉がとても良い香りで、お願い事をしながら良い香りに癒されました。

Great coffee, desserts, and homemade bread. For anyone looking for western comfort food, definitely try the lasagna! Lovely atmosphere.

(Translated by Google) I received a plate lunch of hamburger steak (demi-glace sauce) for 1,100 yen. I was confused since I had the option of Hatcho miso sauce, but I chose the classic demi-glace first. The hamburger steak has a fluffy aroma of ethnic spices in your mouth, giving it a special feeling. Plate lunch comes with warm vegetables, miso soup, pickles, and salad. The atmosphere of the store is great and relaxing. I think this is a famous restaurant where the owner clearly shows his love for the restaurant and the food. There are about 4 parking spaces in front of the store. (Original) プレートランチ　ハンバーグ（デミグラスソース）1100円頂きました。 八丁味噌ソースと選べるので迷いましたが、まずは王道のデミグラスをチョイス。 ハンバーグは、口の中でフワッと何かエスニックなスパイスの香りが感じられて特別感があります。 プレートランチは、温野菜と味噌汁、漬物、サラダが付きます。 店の雰囲気が最高で落ち着きます。 店主から、このお店と料理への愛情がひしひしと伝わる名店と思います。 駐車場は店の前に4台分ほどあります。

(Translated by Google) I came to Shimane on business and stopped by this cafe on my way back to Osaka. I was tired of eating soba noodles, so I thought I'd try a set meal, and I popped in on a whim. The atmosphere is simply amazing. The cafe has a slightly Showa-era retro feel, and you can really sense it's loved by the locals. I ordered a very filling pork cutlet, and it was so thick and truly hearty (lol). It's definitely worth the detour. This was probably the best coffee shop I've ever been to in my life. I don't know when I'll be able to come back, but it's a coffee shop that makes me want to go back. (Original) 所用で島根に来て大阪に帰る途中こちらに来店しました｡蕎麦は食べ飽きてたので定食食べたいなと思い何気に寄ったんですが､店の雰囲気むちゃ最高です｡少し昭和レトロな感じで地域に愛されてる感が伝わる店内｡ボリューム満点とんかつを注文したんですが､肉厚で正にボリューミー(笑)ここは遠回りしても寄る価値あります｡多分今まで生きてきて最高の喫茶店でした｡次いつ来られるかわからないが､また行きたいと思わせてくれる喫茶店でした｡

(Translated by Google) I had something to do at Artepia, so I walked to look for lunch and got some lasagna! It was 980 yen with salad.

(Translated by Google) I had a crappy sushi meal the day before and felt bad, but this place was so delicious it blew me away. The coffee was also delicious, and above all, the pork cutlet was as delicious as the menu name suggests, and very filling. I'm on vacation so I probably won't be able to come here, but if I have the chance, I'd definitely like to go. (Original) 前日にしょうもない寿司食べて気分悪かったけど、ここは吹っ飛ばすくらい美味しかった。コーヒーも美味しかったし、何より豚カツがメニュー名にある通りボリューミーでとても美味しかった。旅先だから来ることはないかもしれないけど機会があればぜひ行きたい

(Translated by Google) It's a restaurant with a nice atmosphere. I had lunch. It's voluminous and has a wide variety. There are many manga and magazines, and you can enjoy relaxing at the cafe. Lunch was 850 yen to 1500 yen. I was able to use PayPay, so it was easy to pay the bill. (Original) いい雰囲気のレストランです。 ランチを頂きました。 ボリューム満点で種類も充実してます。 マンガや雑誌も多数ありゆっくりカフェも楽しめるでしょう。 ランチは850円～1500円でした。 PayPayが使えたのでお会計も簡単で良かったです。

(Translated by Google) The restaurant has a very relaxing atmosphere and the food was delicious! ️ Each of the steamed vegetables that came with it and the miso soup were very delicious. If it was near my house, I would go there often! ️ (Original) とても落ち着く雰囲気の店内で、食事がめちゃめちゃ美味しかったです‼️ 付け合せの温野菜の一つ一つも、味噌汁もとっても美味しかったです。 家の近くにあったらしょっちゅう通いたい‼️

What a steal, affordable. Food was delicious

Big like

(Translated by Google) I go there at night, and the female staff who have been working there for quite some time get irritated. The first letter is ``S.'' Even after I took my seat and placed my order, they never brought me water. The first and second times I thought, ``Okay, okay.'' But the third time, I said, ``Bring the water level!'' Even when I pay the bill, I'm confused, and I don't like it when that "S" is around. (Original) 夜とか行くのですが、随分長く働いている女性スタッフがイライラする。頭文字は『S』席に着いても注文入れても、水も持って来ない。1、2回目は「まア良いか。」って思ったが、流石に3回目は「水位持って来い‼️」って言ってやった。 支払いの時もボケ〜っとしていて、あの『S』が居ると嫌になる。

Spicy yakitori bowl with extra rice 580 yen (tax included) Pork soup with pickles set 250 yen (tax included) Total 830 yen (tax included) The spicy yakitori bowl was made by dipping the yakitori in a special soy sauce sauce and cooking it over a charcoal fire, and the spicy sauce was very delicious😋 The spicy yakitori bowl had an exquisite taste with the different textures of the "thigh", "tsukune" and "chicken skin", the fragrant charcoal grilled yakitori and the spicy sauce😋 The pork soup with pickles set was also delicious!

(Translated by Google) I sometimes have lunch in Yasugi when I work. It's just delicious (Original) 安来で仕事の際たまに昼食をいただきます 普通においしいです

(Translated by Google) Isn't their selling point their high turnover rate? Or is it? There are empty seats, but they haven't cleared them away, so you can't sit down. Even though you've ordered, there are a lot of people waiting. The service is so bad that I don't feel like eating there. (Original) 回転率がいいのが売りなのでは？ないですか？席は空いてるのに片付けてないから座れない。注文してるのに待ってる人が多数。 対応悪すぎて食べる気にならない。

(Translated by Google) It's cold. But the tea is lukewarm. I'm sorry to criticize the free service, but this isn't something you get at other stores... (Original) 寒い。だけどお茶はぬるい。 無料提供にケチをつけて申し訳ないけど、他店ではないことなので…

(Translated by Google) I stopped by on my way from Matsue to Okuizumo. I often see it on the news, so I was curious about it. I didn't know much about the museum until now, but I was very moved to learn about the thoughts and goals of Mr. Kano Kanrai, for whom the museum's name is derived. In addition, there were exhibitions of Yasugi folk art and video introductions of local greats. Yasugi is famous for its folk artist Kanjiro Kawai, but there are also other people who have contributed to the development of local culture. I imagine that it is connected to the spirit of the Amago clan and the Hirose clan in ancient times, and although it is not a large town, I feel that it is a place with great potential. There is an annex next to the main building, where you can get matcha tea as a service. The weather was nice, and the view of the garden was beautiful. Please note that you may freely take photos inside the museum, but please refrain from using videos or flash (visited on May 4, 2024). (Original) 松江から奥出雲に向かう途中で、立ち寄って見ました。よくニュースなどでも見かけるので、気になっていました。 今まであまり詳しくは知らなかったのですが、美術館の名前の由来となっている、加納莞蕾(かのうかんらい)氏が、どのような思いに基づいて、何を目指したのかを知ることが出来て、大変に感動しました。 その他、安来の民芸の展示や、地元の偉人の動画紹介などもありました。安来は、有名な所では民芸の河井寛次郎がいますが、他にも地元の文化の発展に寄与した方々がいるようです。 古くは尼子氏や広瀬藩の気風に繋がるのかなとも勝手に想像しておりますが、大きな町ではないですが、ポテンシャルはとても高い場所だなと感じた所です。 本館の隣には別館があり、サービスで抹茶を頂けました。天気がよかったこともあり、庭園の景色も奇麗でした。なお、館内、写真は自由に撮ってよいが、動画・フラッシュは控えて下さいとのことでした(2024/5/4訪問)

(Translated by Google) I visited because there was an exhibition of my favorite Bizen ware. The curator gave me a detailed explanation and I was happy to hear that I was allowed to take photos of the exhibits. We had matcha tea in the annex and had a quiet and fulfilling time. thank you. (Original) 大好きな備前焼の展示が有ったので訪れました。 館長さんから丁寧に説明をして頂き、展示品の写真を撮っても良いと伺い　嬉しくなりました。 別館でお抹茶を頂き　静かで充実した時間を過ごしました。 ありがとうございます。

(Translated by Google) This is a wonderful museum where you can see with your eyes and feel with your heart what a wonderful decision it is for humans to make not to pass on the tragedies and resentment of war to the next generation. This time, there was also a wonderful special exhibition by doll artist Abe Akemi, which was also wonderful. However, the message in the exhibition room on the second floor left a strong impression on me. (Original) 戦争の悲劇や恨みを次世代に持ち越さない、という素晴らしい決断を人間がする、ということがどれほどの事なのか、それを目で見て、心で感じられる素晴らしい美術館です。今回は人形作家の安部朱実さんの素晴らしい特別展示もされており、それも素晴らしかったです。しかし2階の展示室でのメッセージは心に強く残りました

(Original) 展示物は少なかったですが JAF割引と最後に抹茶と菓子のサービスがありました。 湯呑茶碗は茶道に使われるような茶碗でした。 スタッフの方が丁寧に対応して下さり、 お茶のサービス場所まで案内してくださりました。 良い時間を過ごさせて頂きました。 ありがとうございました。

(Translated by Google) The river in front of me is very nice. The cherry blossoms are also beautiful and quiet, giving you a calming feeling. The museum itself is small, but as someone who loves pottery, I enjoyed it. (Original) 目の前の川がとても、いい。桜もきれいで静かに心穏やかな気持ちになれます。 美術館自体はちいさいですが、焼き物が好きな私は楽しめました。

(Translated by Google) I'm glad that I was able to reaffirm Kano Kano's feelings. In this day and age, I want many people to see and feel it. (Original) 加納莞蕾さんの思いを再認識できたことは嬉しいです。 この時代だからこそ、いろんな人に見て感じてほしいです。

(Translated by Google) Although it is in an excellent location with good access from the city center, all of the facilities are noticeably dilapidated, and although the baseball field is equipped with night game facilities, both wings and center line are several meters short, making it unusable for hardball. , in this evaluation. (Original) 市街地からのアクセスも良好という、優れた立地条件ながら、全て施設で老朽化が目立つ上、ナイター施設を完備した野球場ながら両翼、センターライン共に数メートル短い為に、硬式では使えない残念な点から、この評価で。

(Translated by Google) Before going to Gassan Tomita Castle, I stopped by this park to see the statue of Lord Tsunehisa Amago and the panoramic view of Gassan Tomita Castle ruins. It is located along the Iiri River, and the riverbed is also beautifully maintained. I visited early in the morning, and there were a few people walking along the riverbed and river bank. If you look at the Gassan Tomita Castle ruins from this park, you can see the seven curves from Senjodaira, the horse riding area, and the stone wall of Sannomaru near the top. There is also a cafe that doubles as an information center, public restrooms, a pavilion, and play equipment for young children, so on a sunny day, it would be a good idea to bring your lunch and relax in this park. (Original) 月山富田城に行く前に、尼子経久公の像と月山富田城跡の全景を観にコチラの公園に寄りました。 飯梨川沿いに有り、河川敷も綺麗に整備されています。早朝に訪れましたが、河川敷や川土手でウォーキングをしている方もチラホラとおられます。 コチラの公園から月山富田城跡を観ると、馬乗馬場・千畳平から七曲り、頂上付近にある三ノ丸の石垣を観ることが出来ました。 案内所を兼ねたカフェや公衆トイレ・東屋、幼児向けの遊具もあり、天気が良い日にお弁当をもってコチラの公園でのんびりとすごすのも良さそうです。

(Translated by Google) This is a riverbed park with beautiful cherry blossoms.

(Translated by Google) I wanted to go to the Adachi Museum of Art first thing in the morning, so I used it to sleep in the car. I think it's safe because there is a street light in front of the store. The parking lot is also large. It's a spacious and beautiful place. The bad thing is that the entrance to the toilet is facing the river instead of towards the parking lot...😅 (Original) 足立美術館に朝イチ行きたくて車中泊する為に使わせてもらいました お店前に街灯があるので安心かと思います。駐車場も広いですよ 広くて綺麗な所ですね。イマイチな点はトイレの入り口が駐車場側じゃなく川に向いてるのが…😅
