Listen to your heart while breathing deeply in a quiet place. I suddenly think about what state I'm in now... Although it is very important, we usually don't have enough time to do it. When we get so busy with our daily lives, we tend to forget who we really are. On my next holiday, I want to take the plunge and leave the city to relax and take care of my mind and body. ...That wish will come true in the San'in area.
San'in is blessed with the bounty of the Sea of Japan, and you can also enjoy local specialty meat dishes such as ``Shimane Wagyu Beef'' and ``Oyama Dori.'' You can feel the power of fresh ingredients that are grown so close that you can see the faces of the producers. The local people have a laid-back and warm personality, and just walking into a local food restaurant will make you feel relaxed.
The Sanin area is full of natural blessings and is also a hot spring area. There are so many onsen with such good quality that it can be difficult to choose which one to choose. This time, we will introduce recommended onsen inns where you can have a particularly relaxing time. By the end of your trip, your body and soul will be as beautiful as if they had been completely peeled off. Another advantage is that it is not known to many people, so you can enjoy a sense of privacy. Why not head out now to the San'in area, which is so charming that you'll want to keep it a secret just for yourself?
Hawai Onsen Sennen-tei is an inn with a spectacular view that stands on Dejima of Lake Togo, which is considered one of the eight scenic spots in onsen area. The view from the open-air bath and guest rooms makes you feel like you're floating on a lake! Surrounded by steam, you can see fishing boats in the morning and the sparkle of stars at night.
Immerse yourself in a liberating feeling in the open-air bath where you can become one with the lake. Not only hot water but also natural onsen water flowing directly from the source. When you look at the calm surface of the lake and the distant shore, your breathing naturally becomes deeper. You can feel your heart calming down just like the surface of the water.
I would like to stay in a room with a nice view. The lake side guest room ``Suikintei'' is the room where you can feel the closest to the lake. There is a huge panorama outside the window. The view is so spectacular that you can't wait to open the shoji doors first thing in the morning.
Tottori, home to the rough waves of the Sea of Japan and Mt. Daisen, also known as ``Izumo Fuji,'' is a treasure trove of seafood and mountain delicacies. We offer a wide variety of delicious dishes made with the freshest and finest ingredients. Let's get energized from San'in's nutritious specialties.
