Mt. Hiba

Located in northern Hiroshima Prefecture, Mt. Hiba is a legendary mountain recorded in Japan's oldest history book, "Kojiki," as the burial place of the goddess Izanami-no-Mikoto, who created Japan. Near the summit, a pure forest of beech trees, a national natural monument, spreads out, and a mysterious atmosphere drifts about. The nature of the four seasons is beautiful, and especially in autumn, the entire mountain is enveloped in burning colors of red leaves. It also has a unique history that once caused a stir throughout Japan with sightings of the unidentified creature "Hibagon." It is a perfect power spot for...

Fukuyori Tanada Observatory

Fukuyori Tanada Observatory

An observatory in Okuizumo Town overlooking the "Tanada" (terraced rice fields) spreading in a stair-like fashion. This landscape, symbolizing the original scenery of Japan, is the culmination of the efforts of ancestors who carved out steep slopes. It shows completely different superb views each season: the appearance of reflecting the sky like a "water mirror" in spring, "fresh green seedlings" in summer, "golden rice ears" in autumn, and "snow-covered" in winter. From the observatory, you can capture a dynamic composition where distant mountains and terraced fields overlap, perfect for photography. A healing place where you can appreciate the "art of...

Itohara Family Residence

An old residence of a "Tatara-shi" (ironmaster) in Okuizumo that has continued since the Edo period.
