Sanbe Azukihara Burried Trees Park

The Sanbe Buried Forest is the hidden forest where many giant trees have been lying under the ground since the ancient times, that is the result of the volcanic eruption of Mt.Sanbe around 4,000 years ago. In the underground exhibition hall of the Sanbe Buried Forest Museum, you will find some huge trunks of trees standing straight as they were in the ancient days, and others being laid down there after having fallen down and been driven in an avalanche of sands and rocks caused by the eruption.

Iwami-Ginzan

Reviewed By septiahardy - Higashihiroshima, Japan

Omori is a town nestled in-between the low ranging mountains of Shimane with beautiful scenery. Since its natural beauty is very well preserved together with the history of being one of the most active silver mines in the past, Omori was given a World Heritage status by UNESCO in 2011. This small traditional town has a lot of historical value and a place where guests can enjoy the blending of nature, history, together with the warm interactions of the locals. Omori is a hidden gem in Japan. Absolutely worth to visit.

We went to the silver mining area as there was a recommendation in the lonely planet guidebook. The area is not as touristy as the big cities but they have a lot of handy features vor foreign tourists. The english map can be obtained in the tourist information in odashi or in omori, people are super friendly in both places! The area is beautiful, little village with old houses and so much green forest. Pittoresque! The mines are impressive, you can walk through an old mining shaft and the raffinery rouins are amazing as well. There is a little german bakery in omori which is called "Hidaka" where we got some prezels and german bread. All in all it was an amazing day trip and we really enjoyed it.

Omori Townscape

Reviewed By BZimm08 - Iwakuni, Japan

This town is just lovely, I've stated in another review that it might be my favorite small town in all of Japan. The town is bigger then I originally expected, although it's only one street it's quite long, but beautiful! The quaint houses on either side are gorgeous. About half way there is a shrine on a hill, I recommend walking up here to get incredible views of the houses and valley. Walk to the end to another impressive shrine then make your way back up. There are a few shops and restaurants in town. I just loved this town, the houses were all nicely kept up, it was nice seeing what a traditional town looked like.

500 Luohans

It is a precious religious site representing stone culture, which is a good representation of the stone technology of Iwami Ginzan. Founded three years in Maywa, Shingonshu. In the middle of the 18th century, it took 25 years to provide the spirit of people who died in Ginzan and the spirits of ancestors. We put up Luhan and built Luhan Temple. There are three caves on the rock slope, and there are a total of 501 sitting statues, including 250 stone statues in the central cave and 250 statues of five hundred Chinese statues in both caves.
