In 2004, Onan Town, Ochi District, was born after merging with surrounding municipalities. This merger brought about many changes, and in 2005, it was designated a nuclear-free, peaceful town and a town that respects human rights. The merger resulted in an increase in local specialties and tourist attractions, successfully revitalizing the region. Among these are many historical buildings, such as Ryugan Shrine, Suwa Shrine, and Dangyokei Gorge. Iwami Onsen is the perfect place to soothe your fatigue after enjoying the natural environment. With an herb garden on-site, it is particularly popular with women. There are also many facilities that take advantage of the natural environment, and there are many campsites scattered throughout the area, allowing you to fully enjoy nature. Time passes slowly, making it possible to live a fulfilling life.
