Located on the northern end of the prefecture facing the Sea of Japan, this is a scenic spot with a beautiful rias coastline and strange rocks. Especially the "Hornfels Cliffs," with their striking black and gray striped patterns, are grand natural art designated as a National Scenic Spot and Natural Monument. In the clear cobalt blue sea, islets of various shapes are scattered, and you can enjoy the dynamic scenery from various angles by sightseeing boat or from the observatory. The powerful landscape created by the rough waves of the Sea of Japan and volcanic activity from ancient times tells of the Earth's heartbeat. It is a special place where nature's ruggedness and beauty coexist, a must-visit for those seeking spectacular views and geological wonders.

Susa Hornfels

One of the highlights of the Kita-Nagato Coast Quasi-National Park, this is a massive striped rock wall about 15 meters high towering toward the sea. Born from crustal movements tens of millions of years ago and the heat of magma, the geometric cliff where black mudstone and white sandstone overlap alternately is as powerful as witnessing a cross-section of a giant geological layer. The sight of the waves of the Sea of Japan crashing against it is full of dynamism, letting you directly feel the Earth's energy. You can enjoy the overwhelming graphic art drawn by nature while walking on...

Sogo Railway Bridge

The "Sogo River Bridge" on the JR San'in Main Line in Abu Town is a concrete arch bridge drawing an elegant curve against the Sea of Japan backdrop. At dusk, the setting sun on the horizon dyes the bridge's silhouette red, and the sight of a train slowly passing through is famous as a "miraculous spectacular view" attracting not only railway fans but many tourists. The form merging natural dynamic coastline and modern architectural beauty is very photogenic. The quiet time waiting for the train while blown by the sea breeze will surely be deeply engraved in your heart as...

Tatamigafuchi

A mysterious natural wonder in the mountains of Hagi City, where countless hexagonal columnar joints created by cooled lava from volcanic activity spread across the riverbed like "Tatami mats." This grand landscape created by Earth's volcanic activity millions of years ago is a masterpiece of natural art, and the clear water flowing over the hexagonal stones is breathtakingly beautiful. Walking on the unique geometric stones while listening to the murmur of the river, you can feel the pulse of the Earth and the mystery of nature. It is a hidden spectacular view spot away from the hustle, also known as...

Shimane

Ebisu Shrine

A mystical shrine located on a small island off the coast of Masuda City, often called "Japan's Mont Saint-Michel." A sandy approach appears and can be walked across only during low tide, but the island is completely surrounded by the sea at high tide. The sight of a red torii gate standing on a rocky outcrop jutting into the sea is beautiful, and the fusion of the rough Sea of Japan with a sacred atmosphere is spectacular. The sense of exclusivity, being able to visit only according to the natural cycle of tides, adds a special touch to the journey....
