- Travel / Tourism
- Shimane Pref. Okigunchibumura
- Chiburi Sekiheki (Red Cliffs) is an area of precipitous cliffs that extends for approximately one kilometer on the west coast of Chiburi-jima Island. The rock, which has been eroded by the action of the waves, is a reddish-brown color, which contrasts beautifully with the white spray of the ocean. The cliffs are particularly spectacular when viewed at dusk in the light of the setting sun. Oki Chiburi Sekiheki has been designated as a National Place of Scenic Beauty (in 1935) and as a National Natural Monument.

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.
