- Shimane Oda-shi
- This is one of the shafts, or mabu, that make up 2007 designated World Heritage Site Iwami Ginzan Silver Mine and its Cultural Landscape. Starting from Iwami Ginzan World Heritage Center, you can tour the Kinseiko shaft, which was dug to drain excess water and bring out ore, and the Okubo Mabu shaft, the largest of the remaining shafts. The Okubo shaft was named after the first director of the Iwami Ginzan Silver Mine, Okubo Nagayasu, and is beyond any of the others in scope. It reaches a maximum height of five meters, and there are legends of how Nagayasu rode down it on horseback holding a spear. The massive Fukuishiba quarry spreading in the back is also an impressive site.

- Shimane Pref. Izumoshi Taishachouhinomisaki
- "The area around the ""Izumo Hinomisaki Lighthouse"", certified as one of the ""100 World Historic Lighthouses"", is a recommended place for a walk overlooking the superb view of the Izumo Matsushima Islands and the beautiful sunset. It is also one of ""Japan's 100 natural locations"" where visitors can enjoy the beautiful scenery. "
Shimane Areas
What Shimane prefecture lacks in size and population, it makes up for in scenery and ancient mythology. Izumo-taisha, in the middle of the prefecture, is said to be Japan’s oldest Shinto shrine, where stories that delve into the creation of the Japanese race have been passed down over centuries. The 180 Oki Islands, a 40-minute ferry ride north of Sakaiminato, offer an undiscovered paradise well off the beaten track.
