Matsue Horikawa Sightseeing Boat
This tour boat with a roof floats on the 3.7km-long moat around the national treasure, Matsue Castle. The boatman gives a guide with humorous stories, while you relax and watch scenery.
A boat ride where you can slow down in the city and also see a friendly natural environment.

Matsue Castle
Perched on a 29-meter tall hill in the flatlands near Shinji Lake, Matsue Castle was designated a Japanese national treasure in 2015. It was built some 400 years ago by Yoshiharu Horio, the lord of Izumo and Oki Provinces. The castle is sometimes nicknamed “Plover Castle” due to the castle gables resembling a plover bird with outstretched wings.
Matsue Castle is definitely worth visiting.

Yaegaki Shrine
This ancient shrine enshrines Susanoo-no-Mikoto and Inatahime-no-Mikoto, deities from the legend of Yamata-no-Orochi, the eight-headed serpent. According to mythology, Susanoo defeated the serpent to protect Inatahime, whom he later married. Today you’ll see many flocking to this spot for its believed extra boost for blessings for matchmaking, marital harmony, and safe childbirth.
The Mirror Pond fortune-telling pointed me in the right direction.
