Izumo Taisha

Izumo Taisha is one of the most revered, ancient shrines in Japan, along with Ise jingu Shrine. Its records go as far back as writings from the Kojiki, Japan’ oldest historical account compiled in 712. The deity enshrined here is Okuninushi no Okami, who is known as the deity of love and marriage.。

This is one of the most famous and sacred shrines in Japan. The grand torii gate at the entrance is really impressive, and the shimenawa rope at the Kaguraden weighs a massive 5 tons—something you won't see anywhere else. There's a lot to see and appreciate at Izumo Taisha.
Kawazu-zakura blossoms along the Kawazu River

It is known that early blooming cherry blossoms, which begin to bloom in the beginning of February, along the Kawazu River. These cherry blossoms were discovered in Kawazu-cho in 1955 and are called "Kawazu Zakura" now. It is considered as a natural hybrid species between the winter cherry (Kanhizakura) group, which blooms starting from around January, mainly in warm regions, and the wild cherry (Oshima zakura) group, which is a wild species in Japan.

These are the earliest cherry blossoms to bloom in Japan, usually around mid-February. There's also a festival for the Kawazu-zakura at the same time, with lots of food stalls nearby. The atmosphere is super lively!
