    Shimane Pref. Goutsushi Arifukuonsenchou
    "This hot spring resort is in the retro spa town ""Arifuku Onsen"" and is where Iwami Kagura theater can be enjoyed. The informative commentary, and powerful, magnificent dance is popular. There is a stage on the first floor of a two-story wooden building that can accommodate 30 people. Because the seats and stage are so close you can enjoy the show up close. You don't want to miss this traditional art form performed by the local Kagura group."

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.
