Exclusive Offer for the 'San'in - San'yō Regions' in Japan: Enjoy popular attractions in Western Japan with a travel pass and local day tours

"If you enjoy exploring the deeper regions of Japan, consider visiting the mythical origin of Japanese history—the 'San'in and San'yō' regions. The 'San'yō and San'in' regions have five prefectures: Tottori, Shimane, Yamaguchi, Hiroshima, and Okayama. Due to their proximity to the Kansai region, many independent travellers also like to combine itineraries for Kyoto, Osaka, Hyogo Prefecture, and the San'in and San'yō regions to visit multiple scenic spots in one trip. To know about recommended must-visit attractions and transportation routes, refer to the following content and visit FLYGBA for more details!

The Samurai Residence is the dwelling of the mid-ranking samurai of the Matsue Domain, who received a stipend of 600 koku during the early Edo period. It has also been designated as a cultural property of Japan for protection.
Matsue Castle, located in the San'in region of Shimane Prefecture, began construction in 1607 and was completed in 1611. It is one of Japan's twelve remaining tenshu (castle towers) and is also one of the five castles designated as Japan's national treasures.

‘San'in’ includes Tottori Prefecture and Shimane Prefecture, a land full of charm where you can appreciate the stunning natural scenery created by majestic mountains and the azure sea, as well as deeply experience Japan's rich and profound history and culture. Friends interested in exploring the attractions of the ‘San'in’ region might consider the following travel options to meet their travel needs.

The public transportation network in the San'in and San'yō regions is quite well-developed, allowing access to major sightseeing spots using only trams and buses. However, moving around in mountainous areas or between certain specific regions can be challenging with public transport alone.

The following itinerary is suitable for a 5-day, 4-night self-driving tour of San'in and San'yō (western Shimane + northern Hiroshima), where you can freely combine destinations according to your schedule and preferences to experience two distinct cultures of Japan.
