Historical insights regarding the origins of Japanese culture are to be gained from seeing the valuable artifacts preserved at this museum adjacent to Izumo Grand Shrine. Though some are replicas, several objects on display are priceless national treasures. Taken at a leisurely pace -- Don't rush! -- the many exhibits reveal a great deal about early Japan, the construction and re-construction of the Grand Shrine over centuries, and its significance (both religious and otherwise) to successive generations. My wife and I took in the museum before going to the Grand Shrine, which enhanced our appreciation of the shrine immeasurably. Had we done it the other way around there still would have been a lot for us to learn. An English-language audio guide is free with admission.

Just down the road from the Izumo Taisha Shrune, Inasa Beach is a MUST visit!! We caught some beautiful clouds and sun rays when we went. It was pretty windy and cold, but it was so beautiful!!!! There is a small parking lot. It was almost full when we went, but some people left right after we got there. There’s also a cafe across the street that must have some spectacular views. If I had know, I wouldn’t have had a Starbucks right before heading to this beach. I’ll be trying the cafe the next time I go!
