Tottori Essentials

Tottori's heritage is defined by the ruins of Tottori Castle and the 1907 French Renaissance-style Jinpūkaku residence. Religious history is preserved at Hakuto Shrine, linked to the 'White Rabbit of Inaba' legend, and the Edo-period gardens of Kannon-in Temple. The region's natural landscape features Lake Koyama, Japan’s largest pond, while the Nagashibina no Yakata museum maintains the traditional doll-floating customs of the Mochigase area. This selection highlights the architectural evolution and cultural traditions of the prefecture.
