Even a random peach I bought here was incredibly fragrant—superior to anything from the supermarket. There are lots of dried fruits and jams too, perfect for souvenirs!

Tottori Castle Ruins
The site of 'Tottori Castle,' built during the Sengoku period by utilizing the steep terrain of Mt. Kyushozan. During the Edo period, the foothills were developed as the political center of the Tottori Domain. Today, remnants such as stone walls and the base of the main keep remain, and the site has been designated as a national historic site.
Even though Tottori Castle itself is long gone, you can still see some of the stone walls and foundations. It really helps you imagine how grand and impressive it must have been back in the day.

Katsuo-ji Temple
Surrounded by a national park in the surrounding area, Katsuo-ji Temple in Minoh is an ancient temple with a history of about 1,300 years, founded in the Nara period (710-794). Within the temple's vast grounds, which cover an area of about 80,000 square meters, are the main hall and temple gate, which were rebuilt by Toyotomi Hideyori, and Sanpoukoujin Shrine, which is believed to be the first Arakami shrine in Japan.
Inside the temple, you'll find lots of small Daruma dolls on display. These Daruma symbolize people's wishes and prayers.

TOKYO SKYTREE(R) TOKYO SKYTREE TOWN(R)
Boasting a height of 634 meters, TOKYO SKYTREE is the world’s tallest free-standing tower which stands in the center of TOKYO SKYTREE TOWN surrounded by tourist facilities. The tower has two observation decks, Tembo Deck at a height of 350 meters and Tembo Galleria at 450 meters.
The elevator goes up super fast and smoothly. Before you know it, after just a couple of swallows, you're already at the Tembo Deck on the 350th floor.
