Discover Matsue Castle, Tamatsukuri Onsen & Lake Shinji: Japan's Hidden Gems!

#matsue #tamatsukuri onsen #hotsprings
Matsue City in Shimane Prefecture is a delightful castle town with a nostalgic atmosphere from the Edo period, located less than an hour by train from Izumo Taisha Shrine. It boasts charming attractions like the national treasure, Matsue Castle, the Tamatsukuri Onsen featured in "The Pillow Book" by Sei Shonagon, and the picturesque sunset views over Lake Shinji. You'll also find the famous "Beta-Tsumami Bridge," known from TV commercials, nearby.
