The Hii River embankment cherry tree, known as one of the prefecture's best cherry blossom spots, has been selected as the "100 Japanese Sakura Famous Places". Every year in late March and early April, it spans about 2km along the Hii River bank and is colored with roughly 800 cherry blossoms. The cherry blossom tunnel will delight visitors as a special scenic view only at this time of year. At night, it is also lit up, and the fantastic night cherry blossoms spread out, which are different from idyllic daytime again.
Another name, "Wishabashi", for its diving bridge over the southern area of the cherry tree-lined tree, is also a popular photo spot.

It is a large valley that spans roughly 3km and is created by the rapids of the Hai River's tributary, the Hai River, by cutting rocks. On the left and right sides of the valley, rock walls such as the Otengui and Otenguwa rise.
In addition, all over the valley, strange rocks and monoliths due to weathering and water feeding, such as harden rocks, kamei rocks, Sendashiki, Tengu yoku, and tatami stones, lie in a number of places, while large and small potholes can be seen at the bottom of the river.
The clear stream sews between them to create rapids, and also develops a magnificent landscape with an abyss everywhere. The promenade along the valley is just under 2km, which takes about 60 minutes round trip.

The town of Yoshida, Yunnan, declared the "History Village of Iron" in March 1986 (then "Yoshida Village"). It is this Tozo group that has become its symbol. The Tabe family, who made his name as one of Japan's best mountain-bayashi kings, built the collection between 1707 and 1906, which extended to 21 buildings.
It is said that the Tabe family, who started the iron and steel industry in the Muromachi period, went up to serving as the leading iron master of the Matsue clan during the Edo period, and at the height of the late Meiji period, they produced 70% of the iron supplied to the whole country.
Some of the Tozo groups have names such as "tekuzō" and "fuchi (fuchi)-zō", and names indicating the year names such as "Bunsei-zō" and "hoei-zō", which speak of their long prosperity. It is a corner where you can enjoy a sense of time slip on the monotone Namako wall of the storehouse.
