Tourist information for
Tottori, Japan

If you want to take a step back in time, why not try walking around in the Shirakabe Storehouses in Kurayoshi Kasuri? Experience the historic white-walled storehouses wearing a kimono made of Kurayoshi Kasuri, a local craft of Tottori Prefecture that has been handed down since the Edo Period. The kimonos available to rent have a choice of kasuri and obi patterns, and there are even options for men. A stylist is in charge of the kimono dressing and hair arrangement ensuring an elegant result. Walking along the Tamagawa River surrounded by the white-walled storehouses, you can enjoy the elegance of the many old merchant houses while shopping and visiting cafes. On the ‘Hodokigami’, write down your troubles or what you want to let go of from your past and leave them to float gently on Hagoromoike, a pond where the legend of the celestial maidens remains, to sublimate your mind.
