    Hyougo Pref. Asagoshi Ikunochoukono 33-5
    This historic site is in Ono, Ikuno-cho, Asago City. Silver was discovered at the location in 807, and it played an important role in funding the shogunate during the Edo period (1603-1868). The Ikuno Silver Mine closed in 1973 and was re-purposed as a tourist facility. Today you can learn about the history of mining at the Mine Reference Library and the Cultural Museum of Ikuno Mine, and there are about 1,000 meters of mine tunnels you can tour, as well as other courses outside the tunnels.

    古来からの歴史ある銀山で、受付後先に資料館で学習してから坑道に入りました。江戸時代など昔の掘削の様子も再現されていますが、閉山直前の機械を使った掘削の様子も再現されていて見応えがありました。近代の産業遺産としても見学おすすめです。

    Hyougo Pref. Toyokashi Izushichouchimachi
    These castle ruins are in Uchimachi, Izushi-cho, Toyooka City. The castle was built by Koide Yoshihide in 1604 and was later transferred to the Sengoku clan.

    Hyougo Pref. Toyokashi Izushichouchimachi
    This clock tower is in the Toyooka City Izushi Important Preservation District for Groups of Historic Buildings in Izushi-cho, Toyooka City. Originally it was built as a drum tower in 1871 during the period when they were used to announce the time. It was converted in 1881 when a large clock was donated. It's been restored three times and is now a symbol of the town.

    ツアーのフリータイム、100分の間に訪問しました。1871年に時刻を知らせる太鼓を叩く櫓として設置され、1881年に、医師の池口氏が時計を寄付してからは、日本最古の時計台として親しまれているそうです。和風の時計台という感じがします。

    Hyogo Pref. Asagoshi Wadayamachoutakeda
    This mountain-top castle built on land at an elevation of 353 meters is also known as Torafusu-jo (Lying Tiger Castle) due to its shape which resembles a tiger lying down. Looking up at the castle from down below, it appears as though it is floating in the sky, and since it is enveloped by a sea of clouds that form due to the early morning fog in the autumn, it is also nicknamed the “castle in the sky” and “Japan’s Machu Picchu.” The season when the sea of clouds appears is from September through November, and the time from dawn to about 8:00 a.m. is recommended for the best view. One can see the entire castle floating in the sea of clouds from Ritsuunkyo halfway up Mt. Asago on Takeda Castle’s southeastern side.

    Hyougo Pref. Toyokashi Kinosakichouyushima 985-2
    "This temple is located in the area right after getting off at Onsenji Chukan Station on the Kinosaki Ropeway. It is said that the priest Dochi, who opened Kinosaki Onsen with a prayer opened the temple. Emperor Shomu called the temple ""Kinosaki Onsen no Shugoji (guardian temple of Kinosaki Onsen)"", and it has protected Kinosaki Onsen and its bathers for approximately 1,300 years. The Standing Eleven-headed Kannon statue that Dochi received when it was opened is the principal Buddhist image of the temple and a nationally-designated Important Cultural Property. Normally it is shown every 33 years, it is displayed to the public at the event called Kaisanki, where prayers are said every April 24 so that the hot springs continue to spring up."

    Typical old Japanese temple. Good place to get away from the crowds of the hot springs resort town area.

    Located in the Kinosaki Onsen area, this museum displays historical pieces of traditional straw work, which has been designated a Traditional Craft by Hyogo Prefecture. The origins of traditional straw work are believed to lie in craftsman who came to the area’s hot spring baths some 280 years ago affixing colored straw to bamboo flutes and other items and selling what they made. Visitors to the museum can view around 200 pieces of straw work crafted from the Meiji to the early Showa periods. The museum’s hands-on learning corner where visitors can make a quick decorative plate or key holder is popular.
