Digest for Chugoku District Sightseeing Spots

The Chugoku district consists of five prefectures located in western Japan. The climates of the Sanin area (The Eurasian continent side) and the Sanyo area (on the Seto Inland Sea side) are totally different, but both regions have beautiful seasonal scenery, delicious seafood and vegetables, and leisure spots including beaches, mountains and plateau. Sightseeing highlights include three World Heritage Sites: the Miyajima, the Atomic Bomb Dome, and the Iwami Silver Mine. Hiroshima and Okayama are modern cities, while Yamaguchi, Shimane and Tottori showcase the country’s traditional culture.
