Take a 500 yen guided tour of Iwami Ginzan Silver Mine

I was thinking of going to Iwami Ginzan in Shimane Prefecture, but I heard that if I went there without doing any prior research, I wouldn't know what to see, so I quickly joined a 500 yen guided tour. Indeed, Iwami Ginzan Ginzan Kaido is still a residential area with residents, and as you walk along it, part of the silver mine comes into view, so I think that tourists who don't know anything about it wouldn't know what to see. On the guided tour, we explored the silver cave while learning about the history of Iwami Ginzan, how silver was made, and the lives of people at the time. As expected, there were many things that I wouldn't have noticed if the guide hadn't told me about them, such as information about hidden Christians, so it was a very meaningful tour. #sightseeing#Iwami Ginzan
