Matsue City

Matsue, Japan's earliest myths, legends, and feudal stronghold Shimane Prefecture's largest city, is a castle town known for its place in the myths and legends related to Japan's pantheon of gods. Izumo Taisha Grand Shrine is also a place where the gods gather. Many of Matsue's attractions are near its remarkable castle?one of just 12 in the country with an original intact keep?and can be seen in a single day. The surrounding area is packed with natural, cultural and historical sights. However, you should spend a few days exploring. Cruising Matsue's canals is another highlight.
