  • Seto Park
    Leisure / Hobbies
    Yamaguchi Oshima-gun Suooshima Cho Nishimigama
    This park is built on the grounds of Otamane Shrine, known for the legend of Princess Hannya. You can see the Seto Inland Sea and the Oshima Ohashi Bridge from the observatory at the foot of Mt. Iino. This is a place of relaxation for local residents, where they can get a close look at the Obatake Seto, which creates magnificent whirlpool tides, and the ships that come and go in it. The cherry blossoms in the spring, cool evenings and rock fishing in the summer are popular, drawing crowds throughout the year. In the park, there are bronze statues of predecessors who contributed to the construction of Oshima Ohashi Bridge.
  • Shinsaku Square
    Leisure / Hobbies
    Yamaguchi Hagi-shi Minamifuruhagimachi 11
    This square is located in Hagi Castle Town. It stands near the birthplace of Takasugi Shinsaku, a loyalist of the late Edo period, and features a bronze statue of his dignified figure with a topknot, wearing haori and hakama (Japanese male formal attire) with two swords in his sash, as he would have appeared in his twenties when he was studying at the Meirinkan domain school and Shokason-juku Academy. The statue stands 180 centimeters tall, and with the base is over three meters in the air, facing the direction of his birthplace and Hagi Castle. The square also holds trees such as Hagi's specialty summer oranges, as well as Shinsaku's beloved plum blossom trees. Since its construction in 2010, it has drawn growing crowds of history fans.

  • Hagi Christian Martyrs Memorial Park
    Leisure / Hobbies
    Yamaguchi Hagi-shi Horiuchi
    This memorial park is near the Hagi Castle ruins, and holds a monument to Christian martyrs built by French missionary Amatus Villion, as well as the graves of Christians from Urakami village in Nagasaki exiled to Hagi in 1868. This park is also a testament to the tragedy of the Gorota-ishi incident, which occurred during the building of Hagi Castle. Rumors that the Gorota-ishi (stones for the castle's bulwarks) were being stolen resulted in open conflict involving Kumagai Motonao and Amano Motonobu, and the construction of the stone walls was delayed by more than two months. Claiming that the trouble of overshoot was caused by Kumagai and Amano, Mori Terumoto, one of the Council of Five Elders appointed by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, attacked them and slew all eleven members of their families. Rumors later spread that the two killed were hidden Christians, thus excusing their deaths.

  • Mine Sakura Park
    Leisure / Hobbies
    Yamaguchi Mine-shi Ominecho Higashi
    "This park spreads along the Asa River, a class B river that flows through Mine City. The area behind the Mine City Office is planted with about 200 cherry trees and has large scale play equipment. The sakura viewing season is from late March into early April, when the trees create a cherry blossom tunnel about 40 meters long that is lit up at night for an enchanting sight totally different from the daytime. During the blossom season, the ""Mine Sakura Festival,"" is held where variety of stage events and stalls take place. The close location to both the station and the highway interchange means it's crowded day and night with many flower-viewers and families."

    Yamaguchi Yamaguchi-shi Ajisu 509-50

    巨大なアリーナのドームが遠くから見えて印象的な施設。アリーナの一角にはこの公園ができるまでの沿革についての展示があった。各種スポーツ施設が集まり、広大なグリーンエリア、臨海の親水エリアがあった。広い駐車場もあった。ただ、スポーツ、イベント、散歩、デート等の目的がなければ、ただ広いだけ、と思ってしまったのが正直なところ。

around-area-map

Heading west along Japan’s largest island, Honshu, the very last prefecture you’ll reach is Yamaguchi, separated from Kyushu by a small strip of water known as the Kanmon Straits, which the far-reaching harbor city Shimonoseki looks over. With water at every turn, the seafood of Yamaguchi is an indisputable highlight, and we’re not talking just the usual fish dishes - the notorious fugu, or puffer fish, is a Japanese delicacy that was discovered in Yamaguchi prefecture, making it the best place to try it out.
