Rediscover the appeal of Shimane. Mt. Sanbe has been introduced in the famous media “Ra-Chi-Go”.

TOKYO,
JAPAN - Media OutReach - 17 February
2021 - A drive tour plan for the Mt. Sanbe area
was introduced on the tourist information website "Ra-Chi-Go" for
those in Taiwan and Hong Kong. As well as the spots with seven must-try local
dishes, you can also find traditional Japanese "fireplace"
experiences, an abundant number of activities, and Instagram-worthy photo spots
at the farmhouse "Mikuniya". The tourist attracting power of Mt.
Sanbe appears to be receiving a lot of attention currently.

The Sanbeyama
area, located in the centre of the Shimane Prefecture, includes Oda City, Iinan
Town, and Misato Town. It takes about an hour by car to reach famous
sightseeing spots such as Izumo. "Ra-Chi-Go" has a list of 7 local
dishes that you definitely want to eat in this area, such as Shimane beef,
Iwami beef, Okuizumo Wagyu beef, and Yamakujira hamburger steak. For instance,
"Iwami no Mori Starry Sky Restaurant" opened in October 2019. At the
outdoor restaurant directly managed by Iwami Winery, meals can be enjoyed in
the wilderness, and their homemade wine, made using home grown grapes, is recommended
as a souvenir.

The Mt. Sanbe area is brimming with outdoor
activities and atmosphere of the four seasons can be seen.
"Ra-Chi-Go" also introduces the cherry blossom trees along the Ushio
Sakura Highway situated around the former Ushio Station on the JR Sanko Line, a
popular cherry blossom viewing spot. In spring, the pink cherry blossom tunnel
is a must-see. In autumn, apple picking can be experienced at "Akagi Kogen
Kanko Apple Garden" or chestnut picking at "Noma Kanko Kurien".
At the mega-luxurious open-air hot spring at "Kokuminshuku Sanbeso",
going in the hot spring while gazing at the starry sky is a luxurious
experience that can only be had at Mt. Sanbe.
