The shrine is clean and well-maintained. You can really tell they take good care of it. It doesn't feel touristy at all, so if you like peaceful places, you'll love it here.

Shamine Tottori
Directly connected to JR Tottori Station, this shopping center is popular not only with locals for everyday use, but also with visitors to the prefecture, and stays lively day and night.
It’s a great place to stop by before catching your train or right after arriving, and it won’t waste your time. If you want to pick up all your Tottori souvenirs in one go, this place pretty much has you covered.

Tokyo Fukkatsu Daiseido (the Holy Resurrection Cathedral in Tokyo); Nicholai-do
A Byzantine-style cathedral with a 35m (115 ft)-tall domed roof. To commemorate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the construction of the Holy Resurrection Cathedral began In 1891, designed by Josiah Conder who also designed Rokumeikan.
It's totally different from typical Japanese temples and shrines. The cultural contrast is pretty striking.

Takao Plum Village
Takao Plum Village consists of eight plum groves: the Plum Tree Road starting from Kamikunugida Bridge over the old Koshu-kaido road, Sekisho plum grove, Tenjin plum grove, Arai plum grove, Yunohana plum grove, Surusashi plum grove, Kogesawa plum grove, and Kobotoke plum grove, and it takes about 1.5 hours one-way to walk through them all.
Springtime here is absolutely stunning! The whole valley is covered in plum blossoms—so relaxing and beautiful. I never expected to find such a hidden plum blossom spot so close to Tokyo. What a pleasant surprise!
