Quick Talk Answers



1.  What's the best prefecture in Japan?

Of course, Tottori is the best prefecture in Japan. It's the least populated, so we have a lot of space. I love the scenery here. The countryside is stunning. It's mountainous, so we can go hiking, and it has beautiful beaches. There are amazing cliffs at the Uradome beaches.

2.  What do you like and dislike about Tottori prefecture?

I don't like the traffic jams. Tottori is a small city, but it has a lot of traffic, especially during the rush hour in the mornings and evenings. The thing I love most is the beauty of the countryside. I love looking at the pine trees and cedar trees covered in snow in winter.

3.  What can tourists do in Tottori prefecture?

Tottori is a pretty good place for tourists. It's like real Japan. The scenery is beautiful. There are many cool attractions here, like the Sand Dunes, the Uradome Coast, Mount Daisen and the Mizuki Shigeru Museum. At the sand dunes, tourists can ride a camel and climb the main dune.

4.  What do you think of the Tottori Sand Dunes?

I think the Sand Dunes are beautiful. I love the dunes in winter when they are covered in snow. I also like climbing to the top and looking at the stunning ocean view. The Sand Dunes are probably Tottori's biggest attraction, so people come here from all over Japan to see them.

5.  Do you prefer Tottori's mountains or beaches?

That's a difficult question. I think I prefer the mountains. There's a town called Chizu-cho, which is on the border with Okayama. There are many forests there and we can take part in something called Forest Therapy. Many people say that's good for healing us when we are stressed.

6.  What do you know about Mount Daisen?

I know that Mount Daisen looks like Mount Fuji. Many people like to climb it. The view from the top is stunning. We can see the sea from the top. There are also some steep cliffs for people who really like climbing. Daisen is also famous for ice cream, milk and beef. You should go there if you like hiking.
