A vast tea plantation spreading across the hills of Ube City, known as a major tea-producing area in Yamaguchi Prefecture representing "Ono Tea." The landscape, where beautiful green tea ridges continue like waves toward the horizon, is spectacular and offers a refreshing sense of openness just by looking at it. The tea leaves grown with clear air and water are characterized by a deep flavor and rich aroma. In spring, you can see the vivid sprouts of new tea, and you can enjoy the "Original Japanese Landscape of Green" that changes its expression with the seasons. It is a hidden spectacular view spot where you can spend a quiet time feeling the breath of the earth away from the daily hustle, also popular as a photography location.

Magura-no-Oiwa-go

A mysterious scenic spot in the mountains of Ube City where countless quartz porphyry boulders, several meters in diameter, are piled up. The dynamic sight as if rocks overflowed from the mountainside is spectacular, and it is designated as a National Natural Monument. Locations where such giant boulders are exposed over a wide area are rare, and you can directly feel the energy of Earth's crustal movements.
