    Tottori Pref. Saihakugunhoukichou Sumura 353-3
    The Shoji Ueda Museum of Photography showcases the works of world-famous photographer Shoji Ueda, who was born in Tottori Prefecture. Ueda’s photographs of subjects set against the backdrop of the San’in region’s big skies and imposing sand-dunes won renown as the “Ueda-cho” (“Ueda style”). There is plenty to see at the Museum, including the pond, which reflects an inverted image of Mt. Daisen, and the Museum Cinema, which is decorated with the world’s largest camera lens. The Museum Shop sells an extensive range of souvenir gifts.

    The museum design attracts us to place a visit. We saw many beautiful photos taken by Mr. Shoji Ueda. There is photo-shooting spots that attracts many visitors - the water reflection of Mt. Daisen.

    "This private art museum is located at the foot of Mt. Daisen, the San'in region's most famous mountain. Surrounded by the area's abundant natural beauty, the museum displays a collection of artwork gathered with an eye towards ""the creation of mountain culture"" and ""the promotion of regional culture."" The museum's standing exhibition consists of oil paintings created based on the theme of natural mountain beauty. Visitors can take in works of art by artists such as mountain painter Genichiro Adachi and Seiji Yabase, Tottori's most celebrated Western-style painter, depicting the local area and Mt. Daisen influenced by each artists' sensibilities. In the adjoining Sabo Monterosa cafe, you can enjoy the director's vaunted handmade soba noodles made with spring water from Mt. Daisen. The cafe's coffee, made with underground spring water from Mt. Daisen, is perfect for a little break after taking in the museum."
