    This is a memorial museum for Lafcadio Hearn, adopting the Japanese name, Yakumo Koizumi, known for his works of Hoichi the Earless, and the Yukionna (Snow Fairy) introduced in the storybook, Kaidan (Japanese ghost stories). This museum opened in 1934 is housed in the Japanese architectural structure adjoining the former residence of Yakumo Koizumi. It was renovated in 2016. This museum introduces the Greek born Irishman, Hearn, who arrived in Japan, via stays in England and the United States, and was then naturalized. The multifaceted aspects of Yakumo as an author, instructor, and journalist can be seen through the displayed mementos, manuscripts and writings revealing a portrait of his person.

    Shimane Yasugi-shi Yasugicho 1058
    This museum presents the achievements and life of metallurgy pioneer Professor Kuniichi Tawara through exhibits discussing his research and results and displays containing writings, lecture notes, and other items used by the man. The professor achieved many things in life, including being the first person to do on-site studies of tatara foot-operated smelting furnaces, a time-honored Japanese technique which had long been kept a closely-guarded secret; and revealing the mysteries behind the beauty of Japanese swords.

    Shimane Pref. Masudashi Otoyoshichou A) 1149
    "Located around 50 minutes' drive from the Hamada Interchange of the Chugoku Expressway, Sesshu Memorial Museum has on display works by the famous Muromachi period (1336-1573) painter and Buddhist monk Sesshu, as well as photographs and folding screens depicting places associated with Sesshu, and displays on the history of Masuda City, where Sesshu is said to have died. The museum is adjacent to Daikian Temple, where Sesshu is said to be buried. From the museum lobby, which is modeled on Tiantong Temple in China, visitors can look out over a garden designed as a Karesansui (traditional Japanese rock garden), based on an image created by Sesshu in his ""Kachozu Byobu"" (""Painting of Flowers and Birds on a Folding Screen""), and enjoy the seasonal vistas created by pines trees, bamboo and cherry trees. The vicinity of the museum has been arranged to resemble one of Sesshu's own landscape paintings, creating a place where visitors can relax while pondering on Sesshu's artistic achievements."

    Shimane Izumo-shi Hiratacho 515
    This museum consists of a Matsue Domain troop headquarters which was built in 1735 and later moved here and restored. The headquarters was once located on the grounds of an estate which belonged to the Honkisa, the foremost merchant family in San'in, who built their wealth through brewing and cotton sales. The building's reception room retains its original, period architecture; there's also a Japanese garden created in the Izumo-ryu style. The Onarimon gate, which serves as the entranceway to the inner courtyard, was reserved for use by the lords of the domain at the time, and this too has been moved to the site intact. The museum hall to the right of the main building was once actually lived in by members of the Honkisa family and displays works of art which belonged to the family as well as other fine artworks and crafts.

    This museum is located on the Momen Kaido (Cotton Road) in Hirata Town, Izumo City, Shimane Prefecture where the old cityscape still remains, and which prospered as a cotton trading center from the middle of the Edo period to the Meiji period. There are two buildings on the grounds, the Koryuto which uses the former residence of Doctor Nagasaki, also called Geka Gomen Yashiki in recent times, and the Hon-Ishibashi-tei (Ishibashi Residence), the former landowner’s house. On the site there is also a tourist information office, a restaurant to enjoy local cuisine, galleries, as well as a meeting room used for workshops and events. Visitors can also enjoy a weaving experience for a fee.

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.
